As a group of schools we have benefited so much from a strong partnership with Pegasus Opera Company, based in Brixton and dedicated to supporting, developing and celebrating BAME opera performers. Pegasus has worked with our schools on celebrating Black British music, Black Georgians and for the last 2 years has been our artist practitioner partner on our Paul Hamlyn Foundation funded Confident Creator programme. Their work goes from strength to strength, as demonstrated in their newsletter, linked here.https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/?tab=wm&ogbl#inbox/FMfcgxwJWjCrLTKZwZTbXNbxsBKcFXvh

Science Magician!
Having really enjoyed Dr Matt Pritchard’s session at the Ogden Partnership Conference last week, we wanted to share his short video on the magic if science. BLC is delighted to be an Ogden Trust Partnership and experience so much excellent support and expertise in Physics teaching and learning from their team.
