In the “Blow Your Own Trumpet” week, students were encouraged to talk about their experiences of success and failure. They were also asked to think carefully about their achievements in each subject during lessons, make videos and act out plays to tell the stories of success and failure in classes.Ms. Hanbury said she wanted her students to be confident in the things theyre good at and to also know theyre not good at everything.
