The Aspire and Challenge Group (ACG) is made up of students that have been highlighted as high performing in years 8-10.

The aim of the group is to help students to aspire within and beyond education through different challenges and opportunities.

Autumn Term 2022: students prepared a presentation in small groups on topical issues effecting society. Students then performed these to governors helping to develop key oracy skills.

Spring Term 2023: students are working with teachers to create a way to increase school wide aspiration and resilience. This project allows them to develop key research and partnership skills.

Summer Term 2023: Surrey University will be coming into school and holding different workshops to explore further education.

ACG has given students access to range of exciting opportunities and trips including trips to McLaren Technology Centre, Oxford University and Charterhouse.

We look forward to this group attending university trips and workshops, entering competitions, getting help with career paths and generally being stretched and challenged in all lessons.

We are sure the students will enjoy the programme and we look forward to them reaping the results from this enrichment as they progress through their school journey.
