This award recognises schools from across the UK that have gone above and beyond in helping young people connect with the wider world It is a recognition of the hard work, passion, and dedication of our staff, skilfully led by coordinator Mrs Killough, who provide our children with a rich learning experience that is beyond their classroom and local community It was an honour to see our pupils’ learning celebrated at the Houses of Parliament and to be one of only two schools from Northern Ireland. Thanks to MPs who called by to congratulate our success. Well done again to our entire school community.
