We had the privilege of Dr Adiuku visiting us for a careers assembly, sharing her role as a lecturer & researcher in Robotics & Artificial Intelligence. Hearing about how her robot Turtie works and how she followed this career path after trying to fix a radio as a child!

It’s been a pleasure welcoming trainees from Chiltern Learning Trust who have observed teaching and have planned and delivered a lesson. It’s a privilege to share the excellent practice at St James’ Thank you to all teachers involved and Mr Leach in his role as Lead Mentor.

A thought provoking start to the term ‘Why we do what we do’ At St James we allow all our pupils to grow and flourish in their own unique way.
Amazing morning for our trust. Over 400 staff who have come together. We have been thinking about “Why we do what we do” through our trust values and vision. Great opening from Bishop Richard. Amazing session from @MusharafAsghar who was such an inspiration. Excited for the afternoon. @mrawolfe @diostalbans @stalbansdioedu @UrsulaTaylorSch @StudhamAcademy @Caldecote_CE @NorthillHead @Ravensdenhead @ravensdenps @StJamesHead @mansheadacademy @KensworthCE @StudhamAcademy @TotternhoeCE

We’ve been really lucky to have such varied jobs for our career assemblies so far. A big thank you to Edward Grint for a wonderful assembly about life as an opera singer. We were all very impressed with the films you have also sung in! You have definitely inspired the children.

We were lucky to have another careers assembly, led by Rachel Ajagbonna telling us all about her job working at Cambridge University supporting children to access the university. We also heard the story book ‘Last Stop On Market Street’ which is a lovely story about inclusivity.
