Witnessing The Talent Tap students being granted the extraordinary opportunity to meet Tony Blair at Tony Blair Institute for Global Change is truly remarkable. It is a testament to the strength and significance of our collaboration and our joint values that Tony Blair prioritised meeting our students.
A huge thank you to Paragon IIB Ltd for hosting some of our students last night!🌟 The M&A event was an exceptional opportunity for our students to listen in on all things mergers and acquisitions, and allowed our students to broaden their perspectives. #MergersAndAcquisition

Looking forward to tomorrow's Equity in Education book launch in London hosted by the brilliant The Social Mobility Foundation. Equity is about doing more for pupils who have faced extra barriers to learning, and working with them not doing things to them. Must move away from deficit approach!
Enjoying #ISEedi23 - great to hear that Rolls-Royce would like to see #socialmobility measured like the gender pay gap
