Lighthouse Schools Partnership held the first Business Breakfast of 2024 on Thursday 8 February at Gordano School.  Over 100 Business Partners and education colleagues attended the successful event.

Our main speaker at the event - Lord-Lieutenant of Somerset and Chair of the Bristol Future Talent Partnership, Mohammed Saddiq - provided an engaging and inspiring talk on the benefits to businesses getting involved with communities to help address issues of inequality and social mobility.

Visitors were welcomed by Assistant Headteacher at Gordano School, Jeanne Fairs, and LSP CEO Gary Lewis, who thanked all the business partners and colleagues for their valued collaboration and support.

We also heard from two students - Eleanor from Gordano School, and Adam from Backwell School, reflecting on the benefits they have seen from work experience opportunities.

A wonderful buffet breakfast was provided by Aspens Catering.

A big thank you to everyone who attended this morning - and an extra special thank you to our speakers.
