Last year some of our current Year 11 students took part in the Premier League Inspires challenge. Their goal was to create an initiative in response to the challenge “Protect the Planet”.

Jenson, Jamie, Harley, Gavan, Charlie and Abigail were part of the winning team with their idea to recycle plastics bottles and cups into training tops.

Mr Banks, Inclusion Manager, said of the challenge, “Working with the Wolves Foundation on the Premier League Inspires Programme offered such fantastic opportunities for growth and development of our students.”

The group’s innovative concept caught the attention of the PL Inspires leaders and saw their design selected as the most impactful project idea for the 2022/23 season.

Well done to the team!
