Exciting new partnership for St Clare’s
St Clare’s Oxford Principal Andy Rattue travelled this week to meet Gwyn Ap Harri, the Founder and CEO of exciting and innovative state free school, XP School in Doncaster. St Clare’s will be supporting XP School while they prepare to deliver the IB Diploma from September 2019. XP School will become the only state-funded school delivering the IB in the north of England.
Andy said: ‘I am delighted that we are able to become a partner of XP School. Spreading the word about the importance of looking outwards beyond your own city or country and fostering internationalism remain at the heart of what St Clare’s stands for. It’s a great opportunity for us to reach beyond Oxford to work with young people from a completely different UK context.’
