Bishop's Stortford Pupil Voice Network
The annual Bishop's Stortford Pupil Voice Network (BSPVN) Conference provides a platform for students to engage with their peers and share ideas about promoting inclusivity and diversity, emphasising the value of every individual’s voice and how we, as a community, can ensure everyone feels heard.
One of the highlights of the conference was the BSPVN Community Award, where schools had the chance to showcase a community project. Thorn Grove presented how we celebrate diversity within the school, focusing on how we embrace cultural differences and promote a diverse range of wildlife in and around our school grounds. Thorn Grove were runners-up in this competition, with Bishops Stortford High School taking first place. The children were thrilled that Thorn Grove was recognised for its efforts.
