Our brilliant Schools Team has had an outstanding week, visiting schools and meeting pupils across the area!

Paul attended the Colne Park High School Year 11 Success Fayre, joined by former pupils Maddie (L3 Sport & Exercise Science) and Will (A Levels). He also visited the Todmorden High School Careers Fair with George (L3 Sports, Coaching & Development ARC) and Phoebe and Olivia (A Levels). The conversations were inspiring, and many pupils were motivated by hearing directly from our students. 😊

A little rain wasn’t stopping our students! 💪🌱

Our Steps to Success learners have been getting stuck into their local community, spending the day litter picking at Marsden Park, even in the pouring rain! And their work doesn’t stop there. Next up, the students will be back at the park to help with planting alongside the Friends of Marsden Park. 🌿

A brilliant effort from everyone involved and a great opportunity for our students to make a positive difference in their local community. 👏💚
