Josh & William Visit
It was great to see some ex-pupils in school today. They spent some time with a group of our current Post 16 students, and talked about their own experience of moving on to college two years ago. They did a fantastic job of answering all our questions!
Matthew & Stephanie Visit
Spring Common Academy welcomed a visit from Steph and Matthew, two past students who generously gave up some time to deliver a Q&A session with our identified leavers group for this coming year.
Both Alumni were fantastic at providing insights and details about what it's like to leave school and move on to a college environment, leaving our future leavers reassured and excited about the process.
Steph left Spring Common Academy in 2018 and went on to CRC Huntingdon where she has studied the Archway Course followed by Animal Care, and now the Supported Internship course, which focuses on preparing students for the working world. She is currently working at Diamonds Dog Grooming in Sawtry.
Matthew left Spring Common Academy in 2022 going on to study the Archway course, and is now studying Creative Industries. This involves Drama, Music and Media training, something which Matthew as an avid theatre performer was well known for in his time at School! His performing skill set made him an assured speaker today to our group of Post 16 pupils and with Steph’s help, they answered questions in great detail and with empathy.
When asked what their best memory was about school, Steph replied "I loved getting the chance to visit Slovakia as part of the crossing borders trip it was amazing."
Matthew shared, "I loved performing at school, and I liked being in the school plays!"
It is wonderful to see how well both students are doing since leaving Spring Common Academy, we wish them both the very best for their futures.
