St Edward's Super Curriculum

This year presented numerous opportunities to explore science beyond the lab, from talks on maxillofacial surgery to the psychology of radicalisation. During the Physics Department’s ‘Teddies in Flight’ week, the School welcomed Captain Les Brodie and Colonel Dick Covey to deliver talks described as ‘incredibly inspirational’ (Freddie Samuel and Mikhail Aslam, Upper Sixth pupils). Captain Brodie shared insights from his career flying Concorde, and Colonel Covey, a former NASA astronaut, recounted his missions in space – including the rescue of the Hubble Space Telescope. FOR THE SCIENTISTS

From Ukraine, Olga Rudneva and Andrey Stavnitser discussed their experiences of the war and founding the Superhumans Centre which offers philanthropically- funded medical care to those in need of rehabilitation. Pupils learned how survivors are supported with cutting-edge technology to become ‘superhuman’.
