As part of the S2 Modern Studies course, pupils worked together with the Drama and P.E departments and Anti-Bullying Committee (ABC) to make two news reports – one about Williamwood Sports Day and the other on bullying, with a specific focus on homophobia. The pupils researched their topic; wrote the script; filmed the action and edited the report using skills they had learned during the carousel project.
