"Try and make change for us and for others"

Available for over a year

All eight of Alderney's Year 11 pupils, some of whom have already started sitting their GCSE exams, decided they wouldn't attend an Enrichment Day out of protest. They felt they were being failed by the school, weren't being listened to and that core subjects are not being taught fully because of the high turnover of teachers. Our reporter Josh Day met with Poppy and Lillian, two of the pupils that went on strike.
