SSSS at Writtle College

March has proved to be a busy month for Pos-MAD as we enter April and the Easter break shortly after which we see exams come to town!

In the true spirit of Making a Difference, 24th March saw TV personality and Pos-MAD presenter Rachel Eltham hit the Writtle Agricultural College with her own brand of humour and delivery style of our Super Speed Study Skills, first to in-house Yrs 12 & 13 A Level students followed by Yr 9 from 2 local schools enjoying the hospitality of the college.

Kevin Jefferson, as the local MLP from Pos-MAD who attended in support of Rachel, answered questions from the visitors and also the team at Writtle, and is now looking forward to his forthcoming Goal Mapping for a group of Yrs 12 & 13 A Level students from the college in early May.

Both local schools, The Plume in Maldon and Brentwood County High have enjoyed visits from Pos-MAD to their schools previously and indeed a further booking is anticipated for MLP Kevin at The Plume who are keen to stage Goal Mapping in the near future - watch this space!
