Teacher Publishes Book!

Our congratulations to Mr Assaye who has recently written and published a book entitled ‘Teaching and Learning Physics’. The book imparts all the experience and best practice of Mr Assaye’s many years of teaching and is focused on practical solutions. 

Mr Assaye has played a pivotal role in the development of departmental policy and practice in order to secure exceptional standards of teaching and learning across the Danes Educational Trust. As Trust Learning Lead for Science (Physics), he has supported and coached trainees and science teachers in developing and upskilling their teaching practice. He has also prepared and produced a significant number of schemes of learning with accompanying resources, which have been employed by schools/colleges nationally.  

As a nationally accredited Lead STEM facilitator and Specialist Leader of Education (SLE), Mr Assaye has provided bespoke support, advice and consultancy services, consistently raising achievement in Science/Physics. He has planned and led workshops during INSET days as well as in science seminars. The quality of teaching and learning of Physics has always been his priority, and to help educators develop as excellent Physics practitioners is his goal. His experience will potentially move him from local to national leadership roles in the future within STEM Learning.

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.
