This week, we had the honour of welcoming back Paul Anderson, a former student of The College (1979–1986), who returned to inspire our KS4 students with a powerful presentation on the strength of visualisation and the impact of positive self-talk.

In May 2024, Paul and his son achieved a breathtaking milestone—becoming the first father-son duo to reach the summit of Mt Everest via the challenging Tibet route. Their incredible journey was more than just a personal triumph; together, they raised over £130,000 for Dementia UK. What an inspiration!
