The Headmistress of the City of London School for Girls (CLSG) introduced her report, the following matters were raised:

·         The Robotics Club led by Year 12 CLSG students for Year 5 & Year 6 girls from Sir John Cass Primary School, had been a resounding success and would be continuing into the next academic year.

·         CLSG were looking at how they advertised their bursary opportunities and had also introduced a new contextual admissions process which provided a greater opportunity for applicants who experienced some form of disadvantage.

·         The CLSG Director of Music had been seconded to deputise for the City of London Corporation’s Cultural & Creative Arts Forum. Members highlighted that, when done correctly, these opportunities for partnership were also of significant benefit to staff who were gaining experience working on different projects and with other schools.

·         The Chairman, with the support of the Board, thanked the Headmistress for her outstanding contribution to CLSG and wished her all the best in her next endeavours.
