It has been busy for the Sixth Form with a number of opportunities for enrichment of their studies and acknowledgment of International Women's Day. During Sixth Form enrichment, Mr Boxall delivered a fascinating lecture to Year 12 about female composers such as Clara Schumann. He encouraged the students to look beyond the male dominated more well-known classical composers and to learn more about the female composers he discussed and believed deserved more attention.

Year 13, as part of their 'Preparation for University' series of events set up by Mr Martini-Phillips, were given a talk by Jo Baldwin, Director of Fiscorum Financial Intelligence all about handling finances at university and beyond. Students were given expert practical advice and suggestions.

As part of our International Women's Day focus, the organisation 'Befriend your boobs' gave a talk and workshop to all sixth formers about identifying, preventing and treating breast cancer and raising understanding of the increased risks for certain ethnic groups. The sessions were led by Dr Michelle Ferris and Dr Simone Shelle, and supported by medical Students Nikita Sood, Anabelle Permutt and Abena Amponsan. The practical and extremely well informed nature of the workshop gave the students a raft of essential information.
