Reed's In The News

The  #activityoftheweek this week is Lunchtime Club with Nellie, our gorgeous therapy dog! This club provides a nurturing space designed to support emotional development, build confidence, and foster social connections across year groups. Pupils are helped to overcome fears through safe interaction with Nellie. They can also learn about communication and social cues (canine and human) helping them understand concepts like empathy, boundaries, and emotional regulation. Nellie loves learning new tricks for treats, promoting the principle of positive reinforcement, and being taken on walks allowing pupils to be responsibile and assess risk. This club is a joyful and enriching experience that supports emotional wellbeing, social development, and life skills - all wrapped up in the wag of a tail! #therapydog #Nellie #cockerpoo #nuturing #andrewreedaward

Nerves were soon forgotten at the Model United Nations (MUN) conference held at Alleyn's School in Dulwich when students got involved in some fierce lobbying. Topics for the later debates ranged from post-colonial trade relationships across Africa to nuclear policy globally. It great to see Reed's students making such important contributions as well as proposing amendments in the final crisis debate. A fantastic experience for them! #modelunitednations #modelunitednationsconference #debating

A visit to London for U6 Fine Art students took in two iconic museums: Tate Britain and Tate Modern. At Tate Britain, they viewed the work of Edward Burra, a renowned British artist who explored the urban underworld of the “Roaring Twenties” and the work of Ithell Colquhoun, a surrealist whose concepts come to life in an array of colour and abstraction. The immersive and intricate work of Do Ho Suh was expereinced at Tate Modern. His installation, which examines the complex relationship between architecture, the human form, space, memory and the moments that define us, served as a pivotal exhibition for our cohort. Finally, they had the privilege of seeing the Theatre Picasso exhibition, which celebrates the performative side of the artist’s life.  A fantastic trip for our young, budding artists which certainly provided a rich source of material for their portfolios! #arttrip #fineart #tatebritain #tatemodern

Head of Enterprise, Mr Fry, organised a business simulation workshop for the whole of the 5th Form to help enhance their enterprise skills. The simulation is used by Nokia to train managers in their stores & explored the challenges of running a business in a competitive retail environment. In teams, pupils were responsible for overall business performance for sales, marketing, finance, staffing and stock management. Teams were measured against 3 elements: customer satisfaction, profit and employee motivation. Reed’s enterprise skills such as problem solving, communication and teamworking were all put to the test in performance under pressure and business thinking! #enterprise #enterpriseworkshop #problemsolving #communication #teamwork
