'Amazing People Schools enables educators to create a bespoke model that suits their own school’s needs. At my previous school, it was a powerful tool for increasing the social capital of our students. My next project will be two-fold. Firstly, in making real the character traits we expect students to exhibit and enabling staff to recognise and reward these; and secondly, as a tool to empower pupil premium students to take on the selective test and gain access to grammar education. In short Amazing People Schools, when used well, is a lever for social mobility.' Headteacher.
