FEBRUARY 2021 UPDATE 3

Today is the International Day for Women in Science. The science department at Extra Mile School organised short motivational discussions with female students and staff to mark the day. Many thanks to our incredible staff and to the generous organisations who have sponsored our science laboratory, St James’ Place and various Rotary groups around Rugby.

Rapt attention from students and staff alike.

Our SS students benefitting from the use of the projector in the classroom in a mathematics lesson to bring terms and sequences to life. Well done to our Country Director and maths teacher, Moses Conteh

Staff and students’ ability to access the internet for research and investigations has been aided by the recent purchase of a router to enhance the access to broadband. It’s been a long wait but now we hope to see a real impact on learning and teaching. Many thanks to Moses Conteh for sourcing it

Real excitement from staff re the prospects of better and regular internet access.

All of these developments are due to our generous supporters. There still remains much to be done to improve the life chances of young people, not only in our school, but in the local village.
