Sanders Draper School

To celebrate Shakespeare Week some of our Year 8 and Year 10 students have taken part in a special workshop focusing on the stagecraft and language of Shakespeare. #ShakespeareWeek

We gathered as a school for reflection, Meadow our new Student President lad a wreath on our school memorial, we laid flowers of his grave and after revealing our new school flag our Student President and Deputies raised the flag #SandersDraperDay

Happy Sanders Draper Day on what was the 83rd anniversary of his passing. As a school we had an assembly led by year 7, who asked us to think about the legacy we will each leave behind. They also reminded us of the values of Sanders Draper and our House Heroes.

WORLD BOOK DAY Year 7 took part in the Premier League Book and Footy Quiz as part of our World Book Day celebrations! We had book swaps, amazing door displays and many activities on promoting literacy

Whether it's tackling tricky equations, mastering essay structures, or just getting some focused revision time in a quiet space, we're here to help our students bridge the gap and support their progress and understanding.

We understand that Year 11 is a marathon, not a sprint-but the finish line is getting closer. To help our students feel confident for their upcoming mocks & hit the ground running for the summer GCSEs, we're holding numerous February Half-Term Support Sessions.

Year 11 Citizenship students have been working to support London Retired Police Dogs Trust. We welcomed them in and we loved being joined by two furry visitors Hans and Gemma. This was a part of their active citizenship, towards their final GCSE exam. Students raised £350

It wasn’t just about the facts—it was about seeing where a career in science can take you. Our future innovators are feeling very inspired! #GCSE #ScienceLive #STEM #Year10 #FutureScientists #SchoolTrip

Science comes to life! 🧬✨ Some Yr10s headed to GCSE Science Live, learning from some of the brightest minds in the UK. From the wonders of biology & Professor Robert Winston to breakthroughs in physics & chemistry, students got a front-row seat to the future of discovery. 🧪🚀

Pleased to have hosted a session by @elevateed on AI to our staff and fellow schools across Havering.

We work hard to support our parents on the dangers online and staying safe. You can access our February online safety newsletter and other support via the link below; sandersschool.org.uk/information-fo…

During the visit, Lord Hayward explained the role the House of Lords has in the passing of laws, holding the government to account and making recommendations to the government on a range of topics through its committee work. He also answered questions from students.

Today our students were visited by Lord Hayward to talk about the work of the House of Lords, and their role in it, as part of the popular ‘Learn with the Lords’ programme.

What a journey — we’re so proud! Our Y11 Boys Football Team have made history by reaching the National Cup quarter-finals! They defeated Stamford Wellard Academy 1–0 with a crucial goal from Alfie. Special mention to Jack, Player of the Match, for his leadership on the pitch!
