• Raising aspirations

  Mon 29 Jan 2024

  This month we’ve been particularly focussed on pathways and showcasing the potential opportunities our students could have in the future. 

   

  We visited the University of Leeds for two conference days for Raised in Yorkshire, a partnership for our aspirant Medic and Dentists.
  
  This year-long, real-world research project enables our young people to experience a critical part of higher level study in these competitive courses as well as addressing how looking after healthy teeth is related to good school attendance for our Year 7 cohort. We're looking forward to seeing bright smiles as they start the education mentoring phase!

  
  We also had the pleasure of taking 51 of our Year 12s to the University of Sheffield, and 38 students to Newcastle University to experience a selection of our closest Russell Group Universities. This work will continue in the Summer Term with Year 12 collaborating with Newcastle University on Unifrog and beginning the UCAS process.
  
  Students had the opportunity to discuss student living, finances, course choices with undergraduate ambassadors, as well as meeting teaching staff in a range of disciplines.

• Exciting news for Class of 2023

  When you leave BG6 your legacy lives on and you will always be a BG6 alumni.

   

  To celebrate this and the successes of 2023 we would like to invite all our former Year 13 students to our BG6 Get Together Class of 2023 celebration.

   

  This event is a superb opportunity for us all to celebrate your BG6 achievements and successes and for you to share how you are getting on with life after BG6. We also want to take this opportunity to celebrate and remember those that are no longer with us and in doing so we would like to honour Zara Iqbal’s memory, and her legacy, by celebrating her achievements with you, as her classmates.  

   

  The Get Together will be held in the BG6 common room where light refreshments will be available and you will be able to collect your A Level certificates. There will be memory book on display for everyone to sign and leave a message if they wish. There will also be a donation box where we are asking for donations, in Zara’s name, for the Martin House Hospice charity in Wetherby. 

   

  If you would like to join us - please complete the google form by Friday 19 January indicating your preferred date for this event to take place.
