Our challenge•Aspiration, expectation and ambition
•Our families do not traditionally access university, many had never been to central London and our students had gaps in their cultural understanding of success
![Page 20: Amazing People Schools - BETT · PDF fileAmazing People Schools How interactive, digital stories about amazing people from the past can support our amazing people of the future](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020714/5a79934d7f8b9a197e8ced9e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Working with Amazing People Schools
•We had a meeting with the Amazing People Schools Team to discuss how they may be able to work with us on our PSHE programme
•We could see our own Amazing People programme could be a vehicle that we could also use to support and develop both the characteristics that we want our students to embody; and to widen their cultural understanding

Why does it work?•We have been able to tailor the way we use the Amazing People website resources to suit the particular needs of our school. ANY school could do the same.
•We didn’t have to buy any expensive software to track the impact – this is all done in SIMS and Classcharts and is easy to set up. It could be done with any Information Management System.
•The Amazing People Schools team have listened and supported us to make it our own. The resources are easy-to-use.
