 A life changing experience for Year 12 students in Rwanda

‘’A life changing experience’’ was how ten Year 12 students described their visit to Rwanda in July. The trip jointly organised by the Gryphon School and, the Shaftesbury based charity, Msaada provided an opportunity for the students to observe and teach lessons in local schools as well as visiting small sustainable projects set up by Msaada to help survivors of the 1994 genocide rebuild their lives.

Aiming high and enabling students to achieve their potential are embedded in the ethos of The Gryphon Sixth Form. High quality education is of course at the very heart of what we are about. The enthusiasm, innovation and commitment of our teaching and pastoral staff helps challenge and support every individual so that students are keen to learn. As a consequence, our A Level results are amongst the highest in Dorset and we attract students from a wide area. We want everyone to feel engaged and excited by learning; confident, happy, secure and valued as a member of our Sixth Form community. Our Sixth Form is thriving and successful, has an excellent reputation and is fortunate to benefit from many state-of-the-art, purpose-built facilities – from our leisure centre, a conference centre, IT facilities including WiFi access, to the provision of dedicated study space, student parking zones and good transport links.

In the Sixth Form 'opportunities for enrichment are outstanding' and 'students receive outstanding care, guidance and support'
