It was our pleasure to welcome Presiding District Judge in Northern Ireland (and former Head Girl!), Mrs Fiona Bagnall to school today. She took time to chat with our 6th form as part of our drugs awareness programme. She brought to life the realities of the impact of drugs on people’s lives and on wider society, as well as the very real legal consequences that drugs can lead to. The question and answer session at the end was very enlightening and pupils were also given a valuable glimpse into what a career in the justice system might look like. #beaware #learningforlifeandwork #bhsalumni
