The visit provided an opportunity for colleagues from The Key Support to step away from their usual roles and experience life in a thriving school community, while making a meaningful contribution across a range of activities.
Throughout the day, volunteers immersed themselves in academy life, supporting pupils with reading, joining PE lessons and spending time in our nurture room. The experience offered volunteers valuable insight into the daily realities of education.
The Key Support Marketing Manager, Ellie Potter, said:
"We all had such a brilliant time, and it was so lovely to meet all the amazing staff and pupils.
You can really tell what a special place Ark Globe Academy is!"
One of the highlights of the visit was the transformation of the academy's mural wall. Designed by our very own Primary Teacher, Ms Rocha, the mural was painted in bright colours, helping to refresh and enhance the primary playground and leaving a lasting legacy that will be enjoyed by the whole school community for years to come.
The partnership with The Key Support reflects the importance of strong connections between schools and businesses. Thank you to everyone from The Key Support who took part. Your contribution has made a genuine difference to our school community.
