Over the past few days, psychology and sociology students have had the privilege to attend enrichment experiences, one to Chester Zoo and the other to Dana Prison in Shrewsbury. On Wednesday, 11 of us went to Dana Prison, where we were dressed in jumpsuits, locked in cells and given the prison experience, as well as being able to explore the prison with the help of Graham, a prison guard who had worked at Dana for over 20 years before it closed in 2013.
On Wednesday 13th June all of Year 12 attended the Merseyside Higher Education Conference at the University of Liverpool. Universities from across the country were represented, providing valuable information to help pupils select their course choices from the thousands available.
On Monday 18th June, Year 10 students went to Liverpool Exhibition Center to take part in a skills road show where they were able to access a range of apprenticeship opportunities and gain a valuable insight into a wide variety of career options.
