staff meeting
Discovery College has attained Athlete Friendly Education Centre accreditation from the World Academy of Sport. This is recognition for the flexibility and support given to students who compete at a high level in their sport. The accreditation commended DC for our commitment to sport, and also commitment to pastoral care and academic achievement for students. In any accreditation there are suggestions on how we can strengthen further opportunities for students with sporting aptitude and together with ESF we will be working on this. This accreditation allows us to offer some flexibility with the IB Diploma for elite athletes who may need support for intensive training and international competition. Many thanks to Lawrence, Jason Mck, Brian, Michelle M and Joe for their assistance with this.
