SIXTH FORM HIGHLIGHT:
This term, the inaugural ‘Inspire’ cross-Trust presentation event was held at Bohunt Sixth Form. The event, organised by Year 11 students from TPS saw teams of year 9 and 10 students from across BET schools to compete against each other.
Presentations were centred around the theme of, “what has been the most influential change in human history in the last 200 years?” and prizes were awarded in a number of categories, including best presentation, best data log, best content, use of resources, use of time and use of media.
Teams from all schools were successful across various areas and, after much deliberation, a team from Liphook presenting about ‘Weaponry Developments’ and one from Costello presenting about ‘Plastics’ were invited to a showdown against each other. This resulted in one being chosen for having the most convincing argument for the theme.
The judge, Dr. Ray Morton, Chair of Bohunt Education Trust, concluded that team ‘Weaponry’ from Liphook, comprising students Jess and Scarlett, most successfully answered the question. Congratulations to them and to all of the teams.
The quality and sheer variety of all presentations was amazing and testament to lots of prior hard work researching and planning. It really was ‘inspiring’ to see so many of our students conducting themselves so passionately and professionally, thriving in their pursuit of excellence with quite a daunting task ahead!
Neil Strowger, CEO of Bohunt Education Trust, said, “We pride ourselves at BET in offering educational and enjoyable collaborative opportunities wherever possible. The skills and knowledge shown by students today is truly outstanding and it was superb to witness the passion and creativity that went into the presentations today.”
Ray Morton, Chair of BET, said, “this was a real celebration of students’ academic and creative endeavour from across the BET schools. It was a huge privilege to be part of such an occasion that shows the exciting potential of what can happen when our schools meet and share their individual talents.
