What the school offers its staff
We are an outward looking faculty which seeks to foster positive links within the local community and beyond. Faculty staff have a good relationship with the Child Computer Interaction department at UCLAN University with whom frequent collaboration takes place as part of our school's Enrichment programme. The Design Technology department has recently been awarded funding as part of the Royal Society's Partnership grant scheme to run a unique STEM based project with a local engineering company.The department also received funding in 2021 affording pupils a range of opportunities including presenting at COP 26, taking part in the Royal Society Student Conference, and contributing to the Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition. At the exhibition, pupils were invited to attend a fully funded 3-day trip to London where they met with Royal Society fellows, visited the Houses of Parliament and even found time to experience some of the other things that the capital has to offer!
