February 2016
In February 2016 pupils enjoyed the first of many international opportunities available to those at Deer Park. As 2016 ends, the ability to appreciate, value and respect different cultures, religions and languages seems more crucial to pupils in modern Britain.
Listening to other people’s points of view, sharing ideas, seeing different places and ways of life, gaining knowledge and understanding of another country's culture and heritage underpin our school's international programme and partnerships. We are very proud of our international work and the contribution our curriculum areas make to ensuring that ‘our pupils are self-confident, tolerant and responsible’. We are currently applying for re-designation by the British Council International Schools programme and are awaiting feedback on our application.
