Over the last 2 years we have partnered with British Sign to deliver BSL certificated training to our students as part of our enrichment programme.

As we complete our formal 2026 enrichment Tuesday afternoon activities before the Easter break, we celebrate the achievements of our students. Since we offered the programme 241 students have signed up to complete the 10 part programme, which teaches all the requirements of basic sign language.

The latest round of students have been completing and collecting their certificates this week, and we are really proud of their achievements. Learning BSL develops a huge range of skills and demonstrates resilience, teamworking and improved confidence among our students.

BSL qualifications are just one of the dozens of enrichments we have run this year from sports clubs and pre-university courses to IBM skillsbuilder, hugely popular Music and Video production clubs and our Performance Lab.

Well done to all our Access and Year 12 students for their hard work and commitment to go beyond the grades
