“Success isn't just about what you accomplish in your life, it's about what you inspire others to do."

Our innovative ‘Inspiring Young Minds’ programme has been in development since last year and we are now delighted to be able to fully launch it to all stakeholders. It is unique to The Ryleys School and is an enriching programme which will provide our pupils with an opportunity to be inspired by people from some of the country’s most notable organisations and institutions. We have been forging partnerships with both prestigious senior schools and places such as Microsoft, The Law Society, and Silverstone.

The exciting programme will include workshops, excursions and activities scheduled throughout the academic year to open our pupils' minds to new possibilities and broaden their horizons, providing a wealth of opportunities for challenge, problem solving and the development of skills for life. Experiences such as these not only enable children to increase their knowledge, skills and interests now, but spark a curiosity about the world around them, motivating them to explore further and potentially shape their future.

This initiative will add another dimension to our already highly academic curriculum whilst extending opportunities for personal growth and development. Not only will it incorporate external, professional organisations, we will also be tapping into the wealth of talent and expertise we have amongst our own staff and parent body in order to deliver a truly diverse and inspirational programme to pupils of all ages.

As the programme is rolled out, we will keep you informed of all the activities and events taking place, many of which we would love parents to be involved in.

The future is bright and filled with opportunities for our Ryleys' pupils!

Julia Langford.
Headteacher
