Year 13 International Baccalaureate (IB) Biology students had the opportunity to dissect and observe the intricate workings of the mammalian heart, during their lessons this week.
Students were able to see the inner workings of the valves and how each of the ventricles is specifically adapted to perform its function. This topic is part of the human physiology unit, essential and underpinning knowledge of all students aspiring to work in the medical and related fields.
We’re thrilled to announce that Nord Anglia Education is continuing its partnership with UNICEF for another three years! Since 2017, this unique collaboration has provided incredible opportunities for our students to engage in meaningful social impact initiatives that raise awareness of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), helping foster empathy, social advocacy, and global citizenship in all our classrooms.
Turkan, Tia, and Renad – our student Social Impact team – returned from Houston in June. The final part of their Houston experience was to provide feedback to the school’s senior leaders about what they had learnt during the UNICEF training and to propose their ideas for change.
