Everybody Dreams
The public unrest and the riots that occurred in Tottenham in 2011 scared the community and unfortunately our young people were are all too often viewed negatively. Even though none of our pupils were involved in the troubles, they were adversely affected as it impacted their trust in the community and their sense of self.
So, as one of our ways to address the negative perceptions of our community and demonstrate what fabulous young people we have in Gladesmore, the whole school participated in a project. Pupils wrote, recorded and promoted a single and video called Everybody Dreams.
Our song got to Number 33 in the charts and has gained wide acclaim. The message is clear. Our young people have dreams for a bright future and are determined to do their best to achieve.
