On 17 March, we were delighted to welcome representatives from St Mary’s University, who delivered an informative workshop for the parents of Year 5 and 6 children. We were pleased to see such a large turnout and would like to thank all parents for attending and showing such strong support for their children’s future.

The workshop focused on the UK education system and the different pathways available to pupils as they progress through school and beyond. Parents learnt that there are many routes children can take—including academic and vocational options—and that each child’s journey will be unique.

The session also highlighted the importance of nurturing a love of learning, confidence and curiosity in children so they are able to make the most of future opportunities. A range of science-related careers were also shared, helping parents to understand the wide possibilities available to their children.

We greatly appreciate the continued support from our school community in working together to inspire and guide our pupils.
