rewarding not jus t to know our pupils, but to know what their potential is and to exceed it. I t was a fabulous event, the very best of what our young people have to offer in a specialist school for tech­


nology. All the staff worked tremendously hard, I ’m proud of what they achieved too.” He added; “Our designa­

across every subject as well as enabling teachers in the spe­ cialist subjects (mathematics, science and design technolo­ gy) to enhance the learning of all pupils. “Our status has also given


us more opportunities to work in partnership with primary schools and other secondary schools.” The well-organised evening


ended with a group of fash- ion-conscious Year 9 pupils taking to the catwalk to show off outfits designed by them­ selves. The fashion show was enjoyed by all. ■
