As part of the celebrations, Year 12 students Lucy and Milla accompanied Miss Fox to a prestigious awards ceremony held at the Houses of Parliament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The award was presented by Helen Hayes alongside Nina Humphries, Director of UK Feminista. The event brought together schools and colleges from across the country that have demonstrated a commitment to advancing gender equality in education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Guests also heard inspiring speeches from a range of speakers, including author and educator Matt Pinkett and award-winning children&#8217;s author Onjali Q. Ra\u00faf, who spoke about the importance of creating safe, respectful and inclusive environments for young people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The UK Feminista Action Award Scheme recognises schools and colleges that are taking meaningful action to prevent sexism and sexual harassment through a whole-school approach. Achieving this Bronze Award is a significant milestone and reflects the positive work taking place across our school community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are incredibly proud of this achievement and would like to thank everyone who has contributed to making our school a place where equality, respect and inclusion are at the heart of what we do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our Bronze UK Feminista Action Award will soon take pride of place, framed and displayed next to Reception, where it can serve as a reminder of our commitment to continuing this important work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congratulations to Miss Fox, Lucy and Milla on representing the school so brilliantly at this special event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
