Excellence in Pupil Development Award

Wright Robinson College is committed to supporting the personal development of pupils and will use its involvement with the award to further strengthen this. We aim to ensure that pupils leave us ready for the next stage of their education and life. The school views the Excellence in Pupil Development Award as an opportunity to audit current provision. It helps us to evaluate and enrich our curriculum both inside and outside of the classroom. It supports us in developing pupils’ personal attributes and attitudes, such as self-confidence, resilience and self-discipline. We also fully believe that this award will support our ethos of preparing our pupils for life in modern Britain.
