Contagion Day!

Contagion Day - Year 10 make a plan to save humanity. Students came together this week, for our first drop-down day as part of out Project Based Learning programme. Our usual timetable was replaced by a collective effort to tackle a terrible challenge: an unprecedented outbreak of Airborne Ebola.

During morning sessions we had speakers from AstraZeneca, Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, iiCON: Infection Innovation Consortium and Mast Group Ltd. Our incredible life sciences partners shared insights gained from their involvement in the battle against the Covid-19 Pandemic.

Students were then put into groups based on their pathway, and given the following tasks: Students had 2 hours to work on their projects before presenting their solutions. We are so proud of their commitment throughout the day and thankful to our business partners and speakers for creating this once-in-a-life-time opportunity for our students
