View PostPSHE at Callerton Academy: Yesterday, we welcomed Paul Hannaford into school to deliver a powerful assembly to students in Years 7–10 . Paul shared his personal experiences of involvement in drugs and gangs, speaking honestly about the long-term impact this has had on his life including time in prison and ongoing physical consequences. His message was both thought-provoking and impactful, helping students to better understand the real-life risks and consequences of these choices, as well as the importance of making positive decisions for their future. We are incredibly grateful to Paul for sharing his story so openly and for supporting our students' personal development in such a meaningful way. #CallertonAcademy #GosforthGroup #CreatingFutures #PersonalDevelopment #MakingPositiveChoices #StudentWellbeing #LifeSkills #PaulHannaford
