Joel Kenyon @joel120193.substack.com · Feb 11 When I came for my interview in March 2024, I wanted to work with pupils with a similar background to myself and improve their life chances. Every single member of staff at Dixons Croxteth knows why we get up every day: to improve the education of every pupil. I am incredibly proud to work here.

I trained at De Le Salle many years ago. Wonderful community with lovely pupils but a very challenging place all the same. I am so glad to see it is in good hands and making headlines for thr right reasons.
Are our results where they need to be? No, they aren't. But in the first year, our P8 results where the third most improved in the country. There is still a lot of hard work to do, but our staff and pupils welcome it with open arms.
Working in a school with similar figures to this. Improving life chances is a huge motivator for me too.
