The recent Berlin visit by our language, history and art students reminds us how closely art, history, politics, psychology, architecture, sport and society are deeply interwoven.

Visiting the DDR Museum, Berlinische and East Side Gallery, which is the longest standing section of the Berlin wall, the Reichstag building designed by British architect Norman Foster, Stasi prison, and the Olympic Stadium, this was a powerful trip for our pupils learning to understand some world changing moments of the past- and in so doing, their place in the future. 🌍

Earlier in the autumn term, we were delighted to welcome Dr Connar Rowan, from the prestigious Neils Bohr Institute, to King Edward’s to deliver an excellent talk to our young physicists. 

Dr Rowan outlined his research into black holes and gravitational waves and, developed ideas through an engaging Q&A with our pupils, as they prepare for university applications.

Part of a broader Bridewell programme of visiting experts, inspiring events such as these are invaluable for expanding minds with refined knowledge that goes beyond the theory, encouraging critical engagement and further igniting a passions for exploration.
