Reed's In The News

Don't forget to catch up with some of our fantastic Podcasts over the half term. You can meet the new School Prefects for 25/26 as they share what drives them in their new roles, what they hope to change, and what makes Reed’s truly special. A special episode sees a collective of Upper Sixth Form usurpers ousting the usual hosting trio and taking over the microphones for Leavers' Day 2025! Join them for a healthy dose of Reed’s nostalgia—the moments, memories, and mayhem that made the years in our brilliant school community totally unforgettable! Or, in a really engaging episode, listen to a team of young historians exploring the continued impact of the Second World War in 2025, and how pupils today connect with this pivotal period of history. Plenty to keep you going - have a wonderful holiday everyone! LISTEN ON SPOTIFY:  open.spotify.com/show/0JZQub… LISTEN ON APPLE: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas… #podcast  #podcasting  #schoolpodcast

The Model United Nations (MUN) hosted an internal conference this week - which 6 of our pupiols took part in - debating the topic "The Question of Enhancing Global Security to Prevent Cyberwarfare". Delegates worked tirelessly to negotiate Russia’s resolution while honing their public speaking skills. The debate was chaired by Sam C (L6), who ensured that discussions remained productive and respectful. They engaged in meaningful dialogue and developed critical problem-solving abilities. Kiyan L (L6) made excellent points while questioning the position of Liam A (L6). The resolution passed with one amendment, which was excellently proposed by Gabby P (L6). Jacob M (3rd Form) won the award for Best Delegate - a great achievement for his first conference! #modelunitednations  #bestdelegate  #curiosity

Students in the Law Society, run by Mrs Townsend, enjoyed an insightful and educational trip to Kingston Crown Court. They learnt how a typical trial is run, where each person sits in a court room and the different roles of everyone involved. Some students got to see a defendant being sworn in before giving evidence, whilst others watched a police officer and prosecutor read out a police interview that outlined the nature of the crime. They also watched video evidence being presented in court, providing a realistic view of how trials are conducted. The experience gave a valuable glimpse into the workings of the legal system and what a career in law might entail #lawsociety  #CrownCourt  #preparingforthefuture
