On Tuesday 15th January, award-winning BBC broadcaster Mishal Husain kicked off our Women of Influence lecture series with an inspiring talk.

Mishal Husain spoke in detail about her career as a BBC journalist which has seen her work on big international as well as British stories. She provided advice to those who may be contemplating a path in journalism and touched upon the importance of channelling nerves and picking yourself up when things go wrong. It was a fascinating and enthralling talk which will no doubt have inspired all our students this morning. 

Mishal's book The Skills is out now. It inspires, champions and encourages women to make their ambitions a reality by focusing on practical skills that make difference. Our school library is proudly displaying a copy for our students.
