Y12 Student Exchange

12 pupils (six from St Paul's and six from APA) spending a day in each other's school to take part in lessons and feedback on different teaching & learning styles.

Aims

An opportunity for both schools (students and teachers) to see ourselves through a new lens.

A chance for pupils to work together and share good practice and aspirations. For the more academically able APA, it was also an opportunity for strech and challenge in a different setting.

Background

SPS & APA have been working together for several years on a variety of partnership projects. This was identifed as a need by the head of sixth form at APA.

Resources

No financial contribution needed. Teacher CPD was included in this with mutual observations happening at the same time.

Pupil Involvement

6 boys from each school (Y12).

Frequency

This has occurred one during the academic year. There is scope to repeat it each term.
