Dulwich College is committed to sharing best practice across education and has employed the expertise and academic input of the Institute of Education (IoE) to pilot a ‘Lesson Study’ project with other STSA schools. This project is led by the IoE, with small groups of teachers working together to plan and teach a ‘showcase’ lesson.

“We were delighted to hold our annual SpringBoard Fellowship event at Dulwich College this year. This event brings together nearly 400 SpringBoard pupils, current, past and future, their parents and our supporters; it is an uplifting and affirming day. Dulwich College are a committed and enthusiastic partner school and their generosity in offering to host this event significantly enhanced the fellowship experience for the pupils.” Ian Davenport, Chief Executive, The SpringBoard Bursary Foundation
