Year 10 students at the Grange Technology College in Little Horton have been left inspired after a number of guest speakers attended an Assembly of Excellence at the school earlier this week.
The motivational speakers agreed to the visit to encourage the pupils who are currently studying for their GCSE’s to go the extra mile in their studies
The guests represented a variety of fields, including business, sport, religion and politics, and included young Imam Asim Hussain, writer and journalist Peg Alexander, business leader Sajad Hussain and boxer Tasif Khan, who currently holds three world-champion belts.
The theme of the assembly was ‘Different and Better’, one of the school’s key mottos under its new leadership team as it aims to improve the school’s performance.
All the guests were invited due to their success in their respective fields and their links to the Bradford district.
Alison Mander, acting head teacher at Grange, said “It was fantastic to bring in such an inspirational group of role models to meet the students and tell them their stories. We want our young people to think about what is possible and how their lives can be enriched by thinking creatively, pushing boundaries and working hard.”
