Great North Swim 2019 · 7 June 2019 to 9 June 2019 ·

Chase Terrace Technology College, part of the Stephen Sutton Multi Academy Trust, is an 11-18 school of 1400 students in Burntwood, Staffordshire. We are a forward thinking school with high expectations for all of our students. We prioritise teaching and learning and the majority of our funding is invested in the curriculum. The costs associated with maintaining our school environment are becoming increasingly challenging with changes to school funding. We would like to raise £100,000 to continue to improve our school and the provision for our students by funding the following projects:- * £50,000 to upgrade the lift in our main school building for Daniel Ball, one of our year 8 students who has a rare genetic condition and requires the use of an electric wheelchair to move around school. * £15,000 to extend our Accelerated Reading programme for all year 8 and 9 students, to increase the range of texts available and upgrade the technology in our library which is used as part of the accelerated reader programme. * £35,000 to renovate Lees Hall, our main school hall and theatre which is looking very tired. We would love to replace the carpets, curtains, upgrade the technology and install air conditioning.

Story

Daniel has Duchennes Muscular Dystrophy and his wheelchair is now too heavy for our current lift.  I am Deputy Headteacher at Dan's school and am swimming across Lake Windermere in June to raise money for a new lift that will help Dan to access art, computing and other lessons on the first floor with his friends.

We need to raise 50k - any donations will be so gratefully received and every penny makes a difference to us.

Thank you.
