Lockdown Positives

During the current lock-down, our timetables look a little different here at the upper school. This offered us some new opportunities; for example, we have been able to timetable food technology practical lessons to our key stage 4 learners who normally don’t have this as part of their offer, unless it is a selected pathway. Currently, all key stage 4 learners who are coming into school are spending time with me in the food tech room, either re-visiting skills learned in key stage 3 or for some, learning some new ones.
It is has been rewarding to see these young people, who are approaching the end of their time with us, honing skills that will help them in their adult lives.
