Cornerstone School with London Sport Visit
It was great to visit Cornerstone School in Belvedere this month to join a sports session supported by London Sport.
Cornerstone School provides a foundation of learning tailored to pupils aged 11 – 19 who have a primary diagnosis of autism, and Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. London Sport is a charity focussed on tackling inequality and inactivity in London and is distributing £5.7m of funding to schools in London over a three-year period.
Thanks to this funding, Cornerstone School has been able to run projects for its students with new equipment and increased accessibility.
It was amazing to see the students showcasing their sports skills and competitiveness at the gym, table tennis and trampolining. I was particularly impressed with the leadership and dedication of the headteacher and her team. It was clear how passionate all the teachers were to make sure the students had a nurturing, friendly and supportive environment.
