Year 10's Sport Science Trip

21 April 2024

In an exciting endeavour aimed at elevating their NAE grade scores for the Sport Science GCSE, oue year 10 students recently embarked on a four-day expedition to North Yorkshire.

During their adventure, the students got to try out a mix of activities that combined learning with hands-on experience. They did experiments in sports science including indoor climbing and bouldering, and took on outdoor challenges that tested their physical abilities such as a road cycling. This gave them lots of chances to learn new things and improve their skills along the way. 

As the students come back with new things they've learnt, the experiences they had in North Yorkshire show how doing things hands-on can help them become better leaders in sports science and other areas in the future, well done to everyone!

A huge thank you to Nico from Kennedys Law for delivering a fantastic talk today as part of our Ambition Programme. Our students gained valuable insight into healthcare law, the recruitment process, explored a real‑life case study and learned more about Kennedys Law.

We’d love to hear from any local companies able to offer a Year 12 student a short work experience or volunteering placement (3–5 days) during 6-10 July. If your organisation can help inspire the next generation, please get in touch!
