Humphry Davy School 23 Sep 2024 With a passion for military police, Aaron studied the perfect course at Penwith College to secure his dream career. 🙌 From a young age, Aaron always knew he wanted a career in the police, but it’s mainly through the Level 3 National Extended Diploma in Uniformed Protective Services that he has been able to fine-tune where he wanted to specialise in. Aaron, who previously attended Humphry Davy School, talked about his experience in education: “I think all throughout my education I’ve had a good idea of what I want to do and have been persistent with the police route for ages.” The Protective Services course has been a great eye opener for Aaron, filled with exciting expeditions, inspiring guest speakers and valuable trips to local employers. The course allows students to step outside of their comfort zone, meet new people and experience personal growth. Students can overcome personal challenges and see improvements with their confidence, health and mindset. Having former public service professionals as the course lecturers brings a wealth of experience to the course, greatly benefiting the students and their progression after College. Aaron said: “The trips were very interesting, particularly the trip we took to HMS Raleigh. We got to see around the navy base and what they do up there.” Many former Public Services students return to the College to speak with current students about their careers and the path they took to achieve their positions. Aaron found these guest speakers particularly inspiring, as they provided valuable insights to the essential skills and career routes. This experience has solidified Aaron’s aspirations to join the RAF Police with the aim to transition to the civilian police force after a number of years. For students aspiring to follow a similar career path, Aaron highly recommends this course as the optimal choice. Aaron also said: “Going from a secondary school to a college can be a big change because there are loads more people. But you’ve got to meet new people, get out of your comfort zone and you can make good friends here at Penwith College.”

Humphry Davy School 22 Aug 2024 Congratulations to our amazing 2024 Year 11 students! We celebrated the magical moment of opening GCSE result envelopes and watching anxious expressions morph into smiles and joy and again this year! Over a third of all students achieved a top grade 7-9 (old grade A/A*) in at least one subject and over a quarter of all grades in Biology, Chemistry, Health and Social Care, Music, Physics, Spanish and Further Maths were at grade 7 or above (old grade A/A*)! There were some tremendous individual student achievements and special mention to Milly, Olive, Amelie, Martha, Tess and Helena who all achieved the equivalent of the old A*/A grades across the board in all their GCSEs! (That is 54 top grades between them!) Not wanting to be outdone by the girls, Jago, Jet, Cormack, Louis, Jack, Dylan and Frankie achieved the equivalent of 48 top grades. Just reward for hard work and positive attitudes! We are proud of these wonderful young adults and the superb role models they have become for our younger students and the wider Penzance community. Our sincere thanks to the dedicated and experienced team of staff here at HDS who make it all possible and to parents and carers who have every right to be proud of their children. Thank you for your support! We wish all our students ‘Good Luck!’ and continued success as they move on to the next stage of their education and careers. WELL DONE CLASS OF 2024!
