On Friday 27 June Head of Classics and Philosophy at the College Sarah Bell and Classics teacher Lauren Cox attended a prize-giving at the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds, in recognition of their department receiving a
“Sixth Form College of the Year” award, in the Classics for All Impact awards 2025. See https://classicsforall.org.uk/news-and-events/events/impact-awards-2025
The charity “Classics for All” offers teachers flexible support to introduce or develop a classical subject sustainably on the curriculum. Sarah Bell and colleagues initially worked with the charity, as a means of introducing a Beginners’ Latin course as an optional, additional course for Reigate College students.
The recent award is a mark of the department’s achievement in going ‘above and beyond,’ to raise students’ aspirations and success in this fascinating and important subject area.
