Students already achieving iDEA Digital Enterprise Awards from home!

During the period that students have been studying from home six students have already achieved bronze awards, and an amazing 685 badges have been achieved by students as part of the school's participation in the iDEA programme! A truly stunning effort!

iDEA (The Inspiring Digital Enterprise Award), is an international programme that helps students develop digital, enterprise and employability skills for free. Through a series of online challenges, students can win career-enhancing badges, unlock new opportunities and, ultimately, gain industry-recognised awards that help them stand out from the crowd!

Our students are working towards the bronze and silver awards (followed by gold when released) by gaining points across a range of areas. Participants accrue points by learning about a subject, then completing digital skill challenges to accumulate badges. These skills range from social media to video editing and colour palettes to teamwork. The skills are broadly categorised into Citizen, Worker, Maker, Entrepreneur, Gamer and Independent. Each badge takes a different amount of time, with varying amounts of skill required with rewards ranging from 5 to 20 points. To complete the bronze award, the students need a minimum of 250 points.

Mr Taylor, Computing Subject Leader, congratulated the students on this fantastic effort and hopes this will be a great incentive to the other students that are working towards their first award. Mr Taylor gave some sound advice - 'Just keep working day by day!'

The halls of 快猫视频 have been buzzing with holiday cheer this week as the annual Charities Week is officially in full swing. As the Autumn Term draws to a close, pupils and staff have united to raise vital funds for three incredible causes: Endometriosis UK, Spread a Smile, and Herts Young 快猫视频less. The school is alive with the spirit of giving, driven by a jam packed ‘Advent’ schedule designed to get everyone involved in the fundraising efforts. This year’s itinerary has been filled with exciting activities, ranging from pupil led lessons and a "Mystery Bucket" challenge to the competitive excitement of the "Elf Auction" and various competitions. Pupils have also enjoyed the classic "Sponge the Teacher" event and a visit to Santa’s Grotto, ensuring the festive atmosphere is matched only by the community’s generosity. Beyond the classroom activities, pupils have been sharing the festive spirit with the wider community. On 18th December, the SCD Senior Choir paid a special visit to Chorleywood Manor Care 快猫视频. The residents were treated to a beautiful selection of Christmas carols, featuring performances by members of the Chamber Choir, Evensong Choir, and the Barbershop Choir. Year 12 pupils Immy and Chrissie noted that "it was a very joyful occasion and it was lovely to see the residents joining in and looking so happy." The success of such a busy week relies heavily on pupil leadership, and the school extends a massive vote of thanks to Year 13 for their incredible hard work and dedication. Their enthusiasm have been the driving force behind this week's fundraising efforts. The week is set to conclude on Friday with the Grand Finale: the highly anticipated Sixth Form Revue, promising a spectacular end to a week of community, charity and celebration.
