Wellington School’s EPAS activities contributed to the evidence required for the International School Award. On 2 February, Senior Ambassador, Susan Coontz, travelled to London to receive the award at the Houses of Parliament.

The assessors’ report praised the range of activities organised in school, in particular, the Model United Nations programme which gives young people a taste of democracy in action through role-play, and the Fairtrade Fortnight activities where young people organise events to raise awareness of our responsibility to make informed choices when choosing goods and services.
