Community Charities:
At the start of half-term 2, Year 10 students (along with Year 11) were invited to vote for their flagship charity: the charity we will support going forwards. The charity that was selected as the Student Flagship charity was Cancer Research UK. We look forward to spending the next year running various events to raise both funds and awareness for this fantastic cause. In a similar vein, the Learning Coaches were also tasked with voting for the Staff Flagship charity and settled on Parkinsons UK.
Concluding Notes:
This half-term has seen a real focus towards the future, and even beyond the academic year itself. We’ve stepped into “Work Experience” mode (Mon 29th June – Friday 3rd July) with our practice interview day at the start of December, and have run coaching time sessions to best prepare the students at sources and gaining high-quality work placements. It’s also had the experience of GCSEs exam with the RE mock, in preparation for their real exam in Summer 2020. Around the corner lies a much-needed Christmas holiday!
