It has been a real pleasure working with such a fantastic team.
We were delighted to recognise the 50 teachers who have undertaken our ground breaking ‘Personal Best through Formative Assessment’ programme, including extensive use of video observation for professional learning and self-evaluation. Well done, all! #BeYourBestMCHS
