Our Year 13 A Level Politics students benefited from a lively and engaging visit by Councillor Harry Doyle, who spoke about his role in local politics and his career journey to date.

He then stayed to host a special Q&A session with our Junior 1804 Society, where students shared the positive changes they have helped bring about in school and discussed their leadership roles.

This led to a thoughtful conversation about Councillor Doyle’s wider responsibilities, his recent experiences, the growth sectors of the local economy and the varied path his career has taken. Students were able to question Harry about the challenges of his role alongside the more rewarding aspects, linking their work as a school council to his early experiences and why having a voice is important.
