BBC NEWS | Education | Schooling beyond the curriculum
Food for thought.
An article here from the BBC News online concerning the recent issues of school trips and school dinners. For me this relates to what we are as Independent Schools. With the behavioural and financial stability (by and large!) that our establishments and their families possess do we not have a greater responsibility to address the implications of developing more "active and socially aware citizens"?
As leaders in our schools we are in a very strong position to stress to our colleagues and communities the importance of embedding the values and thinking skills esential for our children as they grow and leave us to enter our increasingly pluralist society. Is this not how a Preparatory School is defined?
