My remarkable PA is leaving me after 9 years for a new challenge. Would anyone like to come and work with me - I'm told a high tolerance of whimsy is required.https://t.co/fUpQ6xiXnO

What We've Been Up To

Posted on November 3rd 2023

Elixirr Employability Programme

On Friday 3rd November Y12 students Saron, Blessing, Micheala, Jayden, Hajar and Johanna took part in the first ever Elixirr (a business consultancy) Employability Programme. The scheme was devised by Elixirr to help clients design their thinking to solve the problems they face. Students were challenged to solve the issues of sustainability in their schools, expand inclusive learning or, as HCL6F faced, how to make their school part of the wider community.

Harris Rainham, Wimbledon, East Dulwich Boys, Westminster, Willesden, Bermondsey and Beckenham all sent teams. 

HCL6F students work excellently together designing a mentoring scheme, helping Y13 students develop their UCAS statements (particularly those aiming for medicine and psychology) and develop close ties with the many local primary and secondary schools in close proximity to us. When it came to presenting, the team were congratulated for being so professional, being just 3 seconds off their allotted time of 5 minutes - Impressive! They answered questions well, and scored a unanimous victory. Their scheme was noted for being cost free, of mutual benefit to all participants and for being implementable. 

We look forward to defending our title next year!
