Over the last few months we have been looking at gender balance in our 'Do Now' tasks at the start of every Computing lesson. We are now proud to announce that JTFS has received their 'I Belong' certificate. Well done everyone! @Plant4Sue
Whilst our students at JTFS have been working hard, so have our staff! In Computing we have recently achieved 2 certificates for our professional development. This means we have even more knowledge to pass on to our students and continue to inspire them in their future careers.
