On Wednesday 26th June, Caroline Ashcroft from BBC Bitesize visited our Upper Fourth Religious Studies ambassadors, and a handful of Thirds, in order to gather their thoughts and views on the new content for the Key Stage Three section of their website. The students were able to discuss the kinds of content they would like to see. At the end of the session, they were treated to a demonstration of the process of website design. Caroline also explained how she started her career at the BBC. Dr Jackson-Royal would like to thank those who took part in the event and whose comments will be invaluable for shaping future Religious Studies teaching and learning.
