There was something truly powerful about the collective energy when all Dukes Education settings came together for a day of professional development at Wembley Stadium on Monday. It was a unique opportunity to learn from one another and celebrate achievements across the group. Together, we were reminded that our combined efforts have a far greater impact than any single contribution alone. We are excited to explore further opportunities for collaboration and to make the most of the fantastic Dukes Plus offerings for our families, including application support, day camps, and summer schools.
We also enjoyed hearing more about The Dukes Foundation which is the charitable arm of the group, supporting life-changing charities and organisations nationally and internationally. Last year the group launched their campaign to become the largest provider of transformational bursaries in the UK which will support young people from low-income backgrounds.
At Monday’s conference, every attendee across every single Dukes setting received a £5 token to donate to one of four wonderful charitable causes – a fantastic initiative!
