"It has been great to use the practitioner's expertise on this exciting project which has really caught the imagination of everyone at the school. The children have learned real journalistic skills and I have been impressed with the way they are responding to this challenge. They are now showing great teamwork in putting together the school newspaper, helping inform the wider community about all the exciting things happening in the school." Mina Prabhakar, Assistant Headteacher.
Longford Park Primary School, Coventry, have used their first year in the Enquiry school programme to develop links with the wider school community. Their project was an exploration of creative skills to empower children to take their own learning forward, developing life-long skills that will enable them to be successful in the future.
