    Key Stage Three students spent the day researching engag- ing children’s books. Students then wrote stories with a clear progressive message for an allocated target audience then spent time making them engaging and kinaesthetic. Stu- dents created some fabulous illustrations that were of very high quality. The concept of writing with a target audience in mind is a skill, which they will continue to enhance through not only secondary school and university but also when they get jobs.

  • Student Council Summit

    Published 03/03/23

    Rosedale College student council leaders attended the Trust’s inaugural Council Summit on Monday 27th February, where council leaders from the Trust’s seven primary schools and secondary colleges came together. Collectively, our young leaders explored topics such as inclusivity, sustainability, ways of being heard, and tackling bullying. Leaders were able to take part in team building exercises, learn how to plan events, and shared their best ideas both at primary and secondary levels. Thank you so much to the staff who facilitated this event, especially Miss Page and Miss Morgan, who shared their experience of being school leaders when they were students themselves, and how that role prepared them for their adult lives. Well done to our council leaders, who were excellent ambassadors for the College.
