    For Sophia, Harry and Bella, excellent GCSE results mark the beginning of an exciting new stage of academic challenge, opportunity and independence at Worksop College Sixth Form.

    By Sarah Dalby, Head of Key Stage 4

    What can a 1,200-year-old tree teach us about how children learn?

    Quite a lot, as it turns out.

    Worksop College sits in more than 330 acres of grounds and woodland, just a few miles from the ancient woodland of Sherwood Forest. So, when the Major Oak made headlines this summer following its death after around 1,200 years, it seemed like an appropriate starting point for thinking about teaching and learning.
