On Monday morning of this week Associate Leader Mrs Wright led an inspiring Monday Magic Moment introducing the theme of this year’s More Able Agenda ‘Flair.’ She will be working with staff across the school and all our More Able students to ensure that they are all given challenging opportunities across our rich and diverse curriculum and extra-curricular programme to show flair in their work and achievements.
