Winston
joins the Wellington College Independent State Schools Partnership
I am
delighted to announce that Winston has been invited to join the ISSP with
Wellington College and has accepted. This will bring a number of benefits
to our students and enable the school to offer opportunities to stretch and
challenge our most able learners.
The
programme will be led by Mr Steven Rowe, Assistant Head with responsibility for
the most able students at Winston. This initiative will complement the
work being put in place to create a bespoke curriculum for high achieving
students, reflecting their ability to work at the highest level.
The
programme for the Autumn Term includes:
· A Further Maths Day
· A Future Pathways Challenge
· A Languages Day
· A Science Day
· An Oxbridge Introduction
These
opportunities will be targeted on students in Year 9, 10 and 11 and Winston
will be allocated ten places on each event, which take place at Wellington
College. This enables our students to be working with other very able
young people from a number of schools in the Wokingham and Surrey Heath areas.
We are
looking forward to a very successful partnership.
