Equalities Enrichment day
All students in Years 7 to 11 enjoyed a range of activities and learning experiences outside of their normal timetabled lessons on Friday 15th October. This was the first of our Project Days this year and the focus was on Equalities. We had a variety of external agencies and companies who presented to the students on topics around Equalities and Diversity including Disability in Sport, Race and Racism, LGBTU presentations including a talk from Sophie Cook, who presented on trans-gender themes. At the Valley Campus some of our students also participated in a talk about the refugee status of people who enter the country at Gatwick airport. This talk was really interesting as it highlighted the situation and context of many of these refugees, including their welfare, human rights and many other issues. Our aim is for the annual Equalities Day to supplement the thorough and comprehensive education we offer around the Equalities Agenda in Learning for Life sessions.
In future editions of Parklife lookout for information about our upcoming Project Days, where we will be focusing on key aspects of the curriculum, including Music Around the World and other Creative Arts themed days.
