As North Star Academy looks to recruit new staff - including teachers and Learning Support Assistants (LSA) - Project Lead Ollie Benzie reflects on his own journey and how his employer has helped him develop as a leader, and a person.
All pupils at North Star 240° - from Year 7 to 11 - participated in an insightful half-day first aid training session run by Andy Baker from Star-Med First Aid Training.
North Star Academy Trust’s Project Lead Ollie Benzie explains how educators need to consider a pupil’s past - with a trauma-informed approach - to guide them to a brighter future. "If we can work together with a common goal of improving the life-chances for our most vulnerable children - and take a trauma-informed approach - I believe that we will all be better off, as individuals, as schools, families, communities and society."
