Students achieve accreditation with The Prince's Trust Awards

Well done to Learning Support Practitioner Sally Kirby on leading the first ever cohort of Year 11 students to achieve accreditation at Level 2 with the Prince's Trust programme.

Congratulations to former Year 11 students Harry, James, Nathan, Sasha and Abbie, who participated in a range of modules over a two-year period to achieve the Prince's Trust Level 2 Certificate in Personal Development and Employability Skills. This qualification recognises a breadth of personal skills, qualities and attitudes required by employers across a range of sectors.  The modules undertaken comprised of Interpersonal and Self-Management Skills, Managing Money, Work Experience, Teamwork, Digital Skills and Undertaking an Enterprise Project, during which the students raised money in support of Sepsis Trust, Heads Together and Children in Need by making and selling wooden Santas at the SCD Christmas Fair. The students were successful in completing the course before lockdown began and credit should be given for the determination and commitment showed by the students to achieve this. We are sorry that the students were unable to receive their certificates in person, and we send our very best wishes to the students as they pursue their future studies at college.

Sally’s outstanding work with the students has gained the attention of the Prince’s Trust area moderation team and Sally is recognised as an excellent practitioner.

Charities Week 2025

The halls of St Clement Danes School have been buzzing with holiday cheer this week as the annual Charities Week is officially in full swing. As the Autumn Term draws to a close, pupils and staff have united to raise vital funds for three incredible causes: Endometriosis UK, Spread a Smile, and Herts Young Homeless. The school is alive with the spirit of giving, driven by a jam packed ‘Advent’ schedule designed to get everyone involved in the fundraising efforts. This year’s itinerary has been filled with exciting activities, ranging from pupil led lessons and a "Mystery Bucket" challenge to the competitive excitement of the "Elf Auction" and various competitions. Pupils have also enjoyed the classic "Sponge the Teacher" event and a visit to Santa’s Grotto, ensuring the festive atmosphere is matched only by the community’s generosity. Beyond the classroom activities, pupils have been sharing the festive spirit with the wider community. On 18th December, the SCD Senior Choir paid a special visit to Chorleywood Manor Care Home. The residents were treated to a beautiful selection of Christmas carols, featuring performances by members of the Chamber Choir, Evensong Choir, and the Barbershop Choir. Year 12 pupils Immy and Chrissie noted that "it was a very joyful occasion and it was lovely to see the residents joining in and looking so happy." The success of such a busy week relies heavily on pupil leadership, and the school extends a massive vote of thanks to Year 13 for their incredible hard work and dedication. Their enthusiasm have been the driving force behind this week's fundraising efforts. The week is set to conclude on Friday with the Grand Finale: the highly anticipated Sixth Form Revue, promising a spectacular end to a week of community, charity and celebration.
