Today we celebrate the amazing work of our school governors: dedicated volunteers who give their time, insight, and energy to help shape the future of our schools. From supporting teachers to making key decisions that benefit every child, governors make a real difference every day. We are proud to share a short film showing why it’s one of the most rewarding ways to give back to your community. Could you be a governor?

The Bevendean School Council held their first official board meeting at the Prep School, joined by council members from Years 2–8 and Mr Baty. With Charities Day on the agenda, the children shared brilliant ideas to help raise money — proving that small ideas can make a big difference and every voice truly matters. 💡👏

We were delighted to welcome the Deputy Mayor of London, @joannemccartneyam, to Ernest Bevin Academy this week. Welcomed by our Headteacher and brilliantly represented by Year 7 students Freddy and Micaiah, the visit began with real warmth and pride. Our Sixth Form leaders then escorted the Deputy Mayor to Nelson Hall, where she spoke about her journey into politics and her work alongside @sadiq on the Free School Meals programme. Her passion for reducing inequalities and creating better opportunities for young people truly resonated with our students. A thoughtful and lively Q&A followed, with honest advice about leadership and public service. An inspiring visit and a memorable day for our academy community. We hope to welcome her back again soon. #ErnestBevinAcademy #StudentLeadership #Inspiration #PublicService #LondonSchools

Pay at the top of some multi-academy trusts has spiralled out of control. £220k salaries and £50k pensions cannot be justified while classrooms are under-resourced. #EducationFirst | #AcademyAccountability | @NationalEducationUnion

It was such a privilege to attend the 2026 Leadership Ceremony at Ascot State School this week. This year’s theme — “Leadership is More Than a Badge” — was a powerful reminder that leadership isn’t just about a title or something you wear as a badge. It’s about the choices you make every day. To the incredible students who received their leadership badges — congratulations! 👏 Your badge is a symbol of your dedication and the trust your school community has placed in you. But true leadership is shown in the small moments: ✨ Being kind and including others ✨ Setting a positive example ✨ Doing the right thing, even when no one is watching Leaders aren’t perfect — they learn, grow and keep trying. Well done to all of Ascot’s 2026 student leaders. I know you will wear your badges with pride and lead with integrity.
