As part of the fight against Covid-19, alongside the five other secondary schools within the North East Learning Trust, we have produced protective visors for our local NHS.

Using an approved design from Kitronic, our teachers used the school’s laser cutter to make the protective visors using polypropylene and acetate.

Mrs Keegan, Miss Leadbitter, Miss Hargreaves and Miss Lilly have worked very hard making the PPE in a social-distancing-friendly way and produced almost 1,000 pieces, meaning the 3,200 Trustwide target has been surpassed!

We are delighted to be able to play our part in the fight against the virus and we would like to thank the incredible frontline workers for their tireless efforts and dedication to keeping us safe.
