Tokyo 2020
Abbey Park First and Middle Schools had the great pleasure of receiving multi-Paralympian medallist, Rebecca Redfern, on Thursday 9th September. Despite her extremely hectic post-Paralympic schedule, Rebecca kindly agreed to visit the schools and share her experience of Tokyo and the 2021(20) Paralympics with the pupils who were keen to learn more about the inside-story of being a high-performance athlete and competing at one of the most coveted sporting events in the world. In addition to unfolding the personal and physical challenges of being a top athlete such as one intensive training session after another, Rebecca offered glimpses into the personal side of her Paralympic journey. Facing fierce competition and challenges was not exclusive to the sporting domain for Rebecca, she had to manage a range of personal commitments that included completing her university degree and being a Mum to a one year old little boy (Patrick). The pupils listened to her captivating story with all of their attention and were left inspired by the experience and the rare opportunity to meet a world-renowned Swimmer. Rebecca now has two Paralympic silver medals, one from Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2021(20). Whilst she did not share what she was going to do next – all of the children are hoping for a hat-trick.

Safeguarding Children, including Child Protection, at Abbey Park Schools Federation
This school believes that it is always unacceptable for a child to experience abuse of any kind. We recognise our responsibility to safeguard the welfare of all children.
We will provide staff and volunteers with guidance to follow when they suspect a child may be experiencing abuse or at risk of harm. We will work co-operatively with other agencies to safeguard and promote the welfare of children. We will ensure that our concerns about our pupils are discussed with parents/carers first – unless we have reason to believe that such a move would be contrary to the child’s welfare.
