Hackney’s Education Service – the Learning Trust – appointed Renaisi consultant Lucy Norgate to manage their 2012 project ‘Schools at the Heart’. The project aims to engage all of Hackney’s young people in 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games activity through the schools’ curriculum.
The ‘Schools in the Heart’ steering group will support all schools to develop a curriculum around the games which promote international links, cultural understanding and the learning of new languages. The project also aims to help increase young people’s participation in healthy physical activity and involvement in skills training and employment opportunities.
Renaisi’s Chief Executive Kevin Sugrue commented “We are delighted that the Learning Trust has appointed one of our consultants as the Interim Project Manager for Hackney’s schools’ project. Renaisi has been a part of the Hackney 2012 efforts since 2004 and Lucy has been an integral part of the 2012 unit. She will bring considerable experience, skill and commitment to the post to ensure Hackney’s 2012 legacy”.
