Reaching for the Horizon

More than 250 students from Davison CE High School for Girls in Worthing took part in their annual Horizons Conference at The Charmandean Centre recently.

The aim of the day was to inspire and challenge perceptions and expectations.  Delegates were offered a choice of four workshops, including speed networking where they met successful local women to find out about what they did, how they got there and what inspired them.

Worthing Mayor Anne Sayers and her Consort took part, sharing their experience and enthusiasm with students.

“I didn’t know there was so much out there” commented one student, “it’s really made me think”.

Jacqui Scerri, EBP Co-ordinator for the area said, “These events are crucial to students. They provide opportunities they would otherwise not have, in particular meeting so many excellent role models and being given the time to chat to them and ask questions”.
