Shadow Minister for Schools, Peter Kyle MP visited Hove Park today to tour our campus and talk to staff and students about education.
Peter discussed his role as an MP and his priorities as Shadow Minister for Schools, with staff and a keen group of Year 9 and 10 students. The students asked a range of thought-provoking questions including topics such as; mental health in schools, the current exam system, uniform, disadvantaged students, counselling and students being world ready in a global market.
Peter was particularly impressed by how excited our students were to be back at school, he said:
"It's great to see how ambitious and excited the students are about the future. These are kids that will not be held back by current challenges and it's our job to keep up"
Head Teacher Mr Roberts said:
“It was great to welcome Peter back to Hove Park. During the day he had the opportunity to speak with staff and students to help shape his understanding of the challenges facing schools moving forward, but also to acknowledge and celebrate how our community has supported each other over the last year.”
