Tuesday 4th May saw SSLPs best scientists representing their schools in the Sixth-Form Science Quiz organised by the Charter School North Dulwich and Alleyn’s School. Technical difficulties were overcome so it was just the questions challenging the brightest brains from the twenty five teams representing seven participating schools.
The winners have just been announced…
This term will see the conclusion of our special Anti-Racism Project and six more Thinking About webinars. All opportunities are open to all SSLP schools whether they have previously been involved or not.
This week’s newsletter reviews the exclusive SSLP activities from this term and takes a look at some new opportunities that are coming up.
We had a brilliant Thinking About… Engineering Research webinar on Tuesday, with no less than six schools represented by the extremely capable hosts. A big thank you has to go to Amjad from Dulwich College who arranged the speaker, Dr Adele Nasti (who joined from Germany), and guided us through a conversation about her work. Alexandra, Bo and Zachie each then asked her a question before Gabriel and Laura hosted the Q&A session.
CONNECTING SCHOOLS
Our Anti-Racism Project has continued this term with students collaborating to make short films that will be used to start conversations with Year 8 classes. We have four clusters of schools that are meeting weekly, so you might spot the filming as it takes place between now and the end of term. We are looking forward to sharing them with you next term.
This project has been funded by a partnership grant from the Department for Education.
