Joe wins young leader award from Northamptonshire School Sports Partnership

Joe enjoys trampolining.

Northamptonshire School Sports Partnership wrote “During this year Joe has attended the YST Inspire to aspire camp. Whilst attending Joe unknowingly influenced the dynamics of the camp and had a profound effect on the attendees, many of whom had a range of challenging behaviours.

This challenged many preconceptions of disabilities and changed the way in which many of the young people attending view SEN schools. In addition, Joe has been part of his school's successful application to become a "P.E. Change Team" school.

This initiative has involved GSSC being active in the SSP, assisting many partner schools in raising disability awareness.

In addition, Joe is a fantastic student to have in a P.E. lesson in school, as he often puts his peer's needs before his own and supports them to achieve their goals, often at the cost of his own progress.”
