The Power of Relatable Role Models!



We recently welcomed back two of our former students, Tayden and Marcos, who left us only last year and are already doing brilliantly in their post-16 journeys!

They joined our current Year 11 students to share their experiences and offer valuable advice on choosing post-16 pathways, applying for courses, navigating interviews, understanding entry requirements and reflecting on what they might do differently.

What made the session particularly special was just how relatable their experiences were. Having only recently been in the same position, Tayden and Marcos were able to share honest, practical advice that really resonated with our students. The engagement was fantastic!

From choosing the right college or course to preparing for results day, their insights helped bring the next steps to life and reminded our Year 11s that the decisions they make today can help shape their futures.

Sometimes, the most powerful advice comes from someone who was sitting in your seat just twelve months ago. 💬

A huge thank you to Tayden and Marcos for returning to All Saints to share their experiences, offer encouragement and inspire the next generation of students. We are incredibly proud to see you both doing so well and look forward to seeing what you achieve next!
