This week saw our second non-fiction D.E.A.R event. On Tuesday students and staff dropped everything to read for 25 minutes. With the school bell being rung it acted as a reminder for those in school and remotely connected in to engage with this opportunity as well as reinforcing the strong sense of community that we have here at BMS. Engaging their creative skills staff took a range of approaches to make this as inclusive an event as possible.

For instance, psychology embraced the supracurriculum sending out a range of relevant academic articles for students to read, whilst several learning assistants read aloud to students and humanities made use of the My News website to select appropriate materials for their classes. Observing their peers reading both in the classroom and online is a powerful reminder of the solidarity and resilience that our students are showing at this time as well as staff dedication to continue enhancing their growth-mindset.
