We are incredibly proud to announce that Worksop College and Ranby House has been named ‘Independent School of the Year for Pupil Wellbeing’ at the 2025 Independent Schools of the Year Awards.
This national recognition celebrates the success of our pioneering Willow Hub Initiative – a school-wide wellbeing programme designed to nurture the holistic health of every member of our community.
At Worksop College, we are passionate about preparing our pupils to engage thoughtfully with the world around them. This term, a new initiative – the Leadership for Change programme – has been launched to encourage pupils to explore issues such as social media, AI, fake news, and the challenges of living in a “post-truth” society.
We sat down with Mr Heeramun, Head of KS3, to find out what inspired the project, how it reflects the College’s values, and why he believes it will help pupils develop the skills they need to become creative, critical, and compassionate leaders of the future.
We live in an age where social media algorithms channel us into echo chambers, where we are shown how to be heard but not taught how to listen, and where AI can give us the answer by skipping the journey. To be curious - genuinely curious - requires more intention than it ever has before, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to instil this in our students. This is why inspiring curiosity and supporting engagement should be central to the mission of any and every school in the country.
This week, our community came together to celebrate a very special milestone – 130 years since Worksop College first opened its doors in 1895.
