2015 / <strong>2016</strong><br />

This<br />

year has been an extremely active year in WFactor<br />

with the introduction and development of many<br />

exciting new opportunities for students at <strong>Cranford</strong> Community<br />

College. We have reintroduced PSHCE to the WFactor programme<br />

where students have been learning within a bespoke programme<br />

that has covered many challenging topics from Drugs and Alcohol to<br />

Relationships and Risk. Students in years 11 and 13 have used<br />

some of their WFactor time for intervention and study skills to<br />

ensure they were fully prepared for the summer exams. Students<br />

in years 7 to 10 continue to access different and exciting<br />

opportunities including ceramics, philosophy, crafts, knitting, Latin and equality and diversity and<br />

have been physically challenged in a variety of sporting activities from Duke of Edinburgh expedition<br />

training to lacrosse, swimming, rowing, rugby and athletics.<br />

WFactor continues to be inventive and innovative to inspire<br />

students and provide them with access to activities which<br />

enrich their lives, challenge their understanding and respond<br />

to the ever-changing world around us.<br />

Kevin Biggs (Senior Teacher WFactor)<br />

“In equality<br />

and diversity<br />

I learnt that<br />

everyone was<br />

equal”.<br />

Liban Hersi<br />

(year 7)<br />

“I tried a new<br />

sport, lacrosse – I learnt new<br />

skills and team work”.<br />

Janujan Jeyaseelan (year 7)<br />

“I learned how to counter an<br />

argument in debating class”.<br />

Amneet Sangha (year 7)<br />

“WFactor is a good thing as it<br />

gives the opportunity to students<br />

to experiment with new styles<br />

that maybe they would’ve never<br />

tried in their lives”.<br />

Andre Telmo (year 8)<br />

“Doing rowing as a WFactor<br />

was remarkable and was<br />

surprisingly different than what<br />

I would usually do on a<br />

weekly basis. I met new<br />

people and made new<br />

friends that I wouldn’t<br />

have made if I didn’t<br />

attend this WFactor”.<br />

Namra Ansar (year 8)<br />
