Posted on: 20/10/2021London Irish Developing Player Programme Ben Street and Joel Brewer, Year 10s At the beginning of this term, Mr Parcel nominated a handful of boys in Year 10 to trial for London Irish’s Developing Player Programme. We are delighted to announce that both Ben Street and Joel Brewer were successful in getting into the programme. This is an amazing opportunity for them, as this can potentially lead to the academy programme later on in life. We wish them all the best with the programme.
Posted on: 20/10/2021STEM CareersOn Tuesday 19th October, Varamed (a pharmaceutical company based in Twickenham) came in to deliver a talk to a group of Year 10 students. The aim of the talk was to inform students about STEM careers in the pharmaceutical industry. Students learnt about how clinical trials are run, how treatments are developed and the roles that statisticians and programmers play in clinical trials. It was a really insightful talk, especially at a time where global vaccinations are being developed.
