    Deborah Pargeter, Head, Lower School

  • “The feedback that we have received from the pupils during and since the programme has been completely positive and it certainly seems to have inspired many of them to follow their dreams. I would without hesitation recommend this intervention to help build children and young people’s self esteem and encourage them to focus on their hopes and dreams for the future.”
