WELCOME
ow, and in the years ahead, it will become increasingly essential to have a workforce that is confident about the future, comfortable with uncertainty, capable of meeting unknowns not just with the technical tools of the trade – such as qualifications and experience – but with the savoir-faire to work out what to do with them. One that knows what questions to ask and how to phrase them, how to apply knowledge to strange and novel problems and to accept that there will be times when knowledge isn’t enough and a different way of thinking, planning and problem-solving is needed, as well as having the strength to accept inevitable and multiple failures along the way. Welcome

That’s where the schools and colleges in our area come in. Arming pupils with essential subject knowledge (and top exam grades by way of proof) remains vital. Of equal importance is emotional health, equipping pupils with the resilience to view challenges not in terms of winning or losing, where loss means failure, but learning, developing and growing. This is something that educators here are well aware of. And while each year’s exam results remain a justifiable cause of celebration, schools and colleges are working equally as hard to ensure that when they send young adults out into the world, they are mentally, as well as educationally, equipped to cope with everything life will throw at them.
