Our end of year highs, celebrating #BatleyBrilliance - Run for Jo 2026. It was a wonderful day that brought our entire community together. This year was particularly poignant as we marked 10 years of building a lasting legacy to Jo Cox & celebrating the very values she stood for.
Celebrating 'Batley Brilliance’ this term. Our CEO had the privilege of being invited to 10 Downing Street to attend an event hosted by the Prime Minister. It was in recognition of the vital role education plays in the fabric of society & is the strongest antidote to division.
Step Into The Future event- this term our energy shifted to the future. 250 learners gathered on the Batley Girls’ High School field. Standing together, they spelled out Jo’s name. A drone captured the stunning visual tribute to a legacy that continues to guide us.#MoreInCommon

Last month marked ten years since Jo Cox was murdered.
Her words continue to inspire: "We are far more united and have far more in common than that which divides us."
Do you believe in a world where we choose connection instead of division?
