Sixth Form Building Committee Presents to Senior Leadership Team

Following enlargement and improvement of the Sixth Form Quiet Zone, Silent Study Zone, café and entrance of the Sixth Form, the Senior Leadership Team have been considering the organisation, resourcing and redecoration of these spaces.  The potential budget for this project is £2000, and the SLT were keen to have student input. They asked Sixth Form students to form a Sixth Form Building Committee in order to meet, research, discuss and present plans for this project, and gave students a brief as to the questions that they should be researching.  The students were given six weeks to formulate a strategy and prepare a twenty minute presentation for SLT for the last week of term.

 

This week, the students presented their ideas to Dr Valentine and other members of the SLT. Miss Brogan, Head of Sixth Form, commented on the highly professional and rigorous standard of their presentation, in which architectural drawings and diagrams were thoroughly researched, following their discussion with a school architect. "The students’ ideas were creative, using mature and responsible ideas for use of the space, which included new benching in the café, soft seating in the Quiet Zone, re-use of furniture and lockers, and a new one way system in the café." The leadership team asked the students challenging questions, to which they were able to respond knowledgeably and confidently.

Head Girl Mia O’Connell said “We worked really well together as a group and put together what we hoped was a considered, professional presentation. We were delighted that it was so well received by the Senior Leadership Team.”

Celebrating our inclusion in National Top 200 Sporting schools list

We are proud to announce our inclusion in the prestigious list of the top 200 sporting schools in the country, achieving an impressive 62nd place ranking nationally. This recognition, recently highlighted by the Watford Observer, places the school among the elite educational institutions for sporting achievement in the United Kingdom. The "Top 200" list is compiled annually by School Sport Magazine, which utilises a rigorous methodology to determine the most successful schools across the nation. Unlike subjective polls, these rankings are based purely on performance in national competitions. The magazine analyses results across more than 20 different sports and over 120 different national competitions, awarding points based on how far a school progresses. Particular weight is given to reaching the final stages of prestigious national cups and championships, meaning the list serves as a direct reflection of a school’s competitive reach and its ability to succeed at the highest levels of school sport. Our climb to the 62nd spot this year is a direct result of several standout performances on the national stage across a variety of disciplines. Our Senior Girls reached the ESFA Football National Semi-Finals, showcasing incredible teamwork and skill against the best in the country. Our golfers also excelled on the national stage, finishing as National Finalists ranked number 9 in the country in the English Schools’ Team Championship. Additionally, the Inter Boys squad demonstrated exceptional talent and athleticism by qualifying for the National Track & Field Final, while the U16 Boys’ determination saw them progress deep into their season to reach the National Vase Regional Final. These milestones represent countless hours of training, immense dedication from both pupils and staff and a tenacious competitive spirit that defines the St Clement Danes community. While the school is incredibly proud of these elite achievements and our high standing in the national rankings, we recognise that these statistics only tell part of the story. Our core values are built on the belief sport extends far beyond the trophy cabinet or a leaderboard. Our focus remains firmly on participation as well as performance, ensuring our programme is inclusive, meaningful and accessible for all, not just those competing at the highest level.  Sport is for all, and whether a pupil is representing the school in a national final or discovering a lifelong passion for physical activity in a lunchtime club, our goal is to create a culture where every pupil feels empowered to stay active. We remain committed to providing a diverse range of opportunities that cater to all abilities, ensuring every pupil can enjoy the physical and mental benefits of sport.  Congratulations to all our pupil-athletes, coaches and supportive parents who have helped make this national recognition possible.
