We are pleased to share with you the new 'Sherborne Collaborate' webinar series. These have been designed for parents and boys to aid remote learning and also, crucially, to provide further opportunity to ask questions of us.
The webinars will cover a number of topics ranging from academic, pastoral and careers. Hosted on Zoom, each session will involve a 15 to 20-minute talk followed by a question and answer session.
The webinars in the 'Sherborne Collaborate' series will be recorded and available to watch again.
