We're delighted to announce the launch of our 'Soda with the Head' initiative, which recognises and celebrates our pupils for their outstanding efforts in class. This week, we welcomed twenty-five pupils from twenty-five different subjects, all nominated by their teachers for their outstanding start to the academic year.
We have launched this initiative to align with our secondary school-wide focus on 'Powerful Knowledge'; a theory attributed to educational theorist Professor Michael Young from the Institute of Education at University College London. As always, our priority is to ensure that the young people entrusted to us are served with opportunities to strengthen, develop and refine their learning. We are committed to ensuring that our pupils are future-proofed and ready to embrace life beyond their time with us here at BISA. We're already looking forward to our next 'Soda with the Head', which will take place on Friday 31st October.
