This week, our Sixth Formers enjoyed an unforgettable visit to the Houses of Parliament.
The group joined Bishop Rachel, MPs, prison governors and fellow students from across the country for a series of thoughtful and engaging discussions focused on the prison system in the UK. The event offered a rare opportunity to delve into the challenges and ongoing developments within the justice system, encouraging students to reflect critically on issues of rehabilitation, policy, and social responsibility.
A particular highlight of the day was hearing Amy deliver a brilliant and confidently presented speech in the House of Lords’ prestigious River Room. Her contribution was warmly received and stood out as a proud moment for our school community.
Following the formal sessions, students capped off their visit with some well-deserved sightseeing around London, taking in the city’s iconic landmarks and enjoying time together after a stimulating day of learning.
It was a memorable experience that broadened horizons and offered an invaluable insight into the workings of government and public service.
