Secondary Schools Linking in Bradford

In Bradford, Buttershaw  Business and Enterprise College Academy and the Co-op  Academy Grange have been linking now for over 5 years. Similar to our Primary Schools Linking Programme, our Secondary Schools Linking is designed to break down barriers and to enable students to build empathy, respect, and confidence in contact. Students explore our 4 key questions – Who am I? Who are we? Where do we live and how do we all live well together?

Last year students followed our Pathway 1 programme and explored together why it is important to develop the skills and confidence needed to connect with others who are different to us.

Watch below a short video and hear from the staff and students from Buttershaw and Grange Academies about the impact of their link.

“It’s the most powerful thing we actually have run in our schools. It brings communities together and gives children and students a voice…to meet people..importantly actually to see the similarities and identify with each other.”
