Well done all!

On Wednesday Year 10 students took part in an after-school workshop all about the stars and galaxies to support their understanding of space for the triple science physics course.

On Thursday, the year 10 engineers heard from a team from SETA who spoke to them about their own experiences of apprenticeships and were inspired by their stories of the training they have received. 

If any students want more information about apprenticeships they should speak to Ms Bell our careers lead. 

There is also lots of other careers information on the website Here.

Year 9 took part in a fabulous STEM activity linking the science curriculum to the world of engineering. The sessions were delivered by Energy Quest and the activities supported our extensive careers programme as well as building the student’s understanding of linking their science studies to the world of work.

On Thursday we also had a visit from our CEO and a group of students greeted Mr Clayton first in English and then in their home language to celebrate the diversity and inclusion we value so highly at Heworth Grange. 

Did you know at Heworth, as well as English, our students speak 32 different languages?

We are very lucky to benefit from many rich and diverse cultures across all our year groups.
