David Gregory Year 5 Teacher, Newsham Primary – Blyth Valley Partnership

I was always determined to give the children from my local area the greatest chance to go on to have a career in sectors that I knew would change their lives and the community for the better – the Ogden Trust was a perfect partner to help develop our existing offer and make this vision a reality.

Our students now genuinely view themselves as scientists and want others to join them in their passion for the subject, regularly sharing science research and home projects at a class and whole school level… It is deeply satisfying, knowing that we are making a tangible difference in the lives of our students and the wider community.
