Broadening horizons beyond the realm of the classroom is an essential part of nurturing development and growth in young people. At Pedmore High School we encourage a students to become active members of their community. An example of this is that each year group is attached to a charity, students then organise various charity events throughout the year to support their nominated charity. We also hold an annual Christmas card competition, the winning designs are printed and student leaders from across the school to deliver the cards to our friends and neighbours in the community.

 

Encouraging Leadership

Student leadership plays a significant role in the life of the school and students are encouraged to take an active part in shaping the future of the school. Student leadership is embraced across all year groups with over 150 students in leadership positions, we pride ourselves on the opportunities available to students to develop their skills as leaders.

 

Outstanding Learning Experiences

Providing all of our students with a wide and varied menu of enrichment activities and trips both in the UK and abroad.

These visits compliment a comprehensive list of educational visits within the UK, we are also a member of the National Trust and benefit from all year around access to some of the most beautiful sites our wonderful country has to offer
