THE INTERVIEW IS HERE: #TeamHealing Meets High Performance! We are incredibly proud to release the full interview between our student sports journalists and Jake Humphrey, host of the High Performance Podcast. Last month, Henry, Lewis and Joey stepped into the spotlight to discuss mindset, resilience, and the "work in the shadows." The boys have reflected on this experience: Lewis: "The interview went very well. Jake's advice on achieving our career goals was to ignore the 'bad stuff' and stay proactive. We’ve taken this on board and are already planning interviews with more inspirational people we’d love to speak with Kevin Sinfield next!" Henry: "Jake gave us in-depth information on his journey, helping us understand what sports media is really like. My key takeaway was to accept feedback as a gift and act on it." Joey: "We asked Jake how he stayed dedicated before his breakthrough. He told us that ‘finding a purpose’ in something you enjoy makes it much easier to stay focused. When you enjoy it, it feels rewarding." A Pioneer Partnership in Action As a Pioneer School of the High Performance Foundation, this interview is a fantastic example of our collaboration. We have fully implemented the Game Plan resources into our curriculum, and seeing our students engage directly with Jake shows the impact of these principles in practice. We have also recently signed up to the Mental Strength Alliance. Principal Mr. Logan, we are sincerely indebted to Jake for his time and generosity. This wasn't just an interview; it was a masterclass in the principles that drive purpose, values, culture and habits that lead to high performance." A huge thank you to Jake, Harriett, Hannah and the entire team at the High Performance Foundation Chloe, Freddie, Beth and Mollie. Watch the full interview below to see High Performance in action!

This week, aspiring Year 10 Sports Journalists - Henry, Joey and Lewis, produced a video directed at @jakehumphrey and the @foundation_hp of the possibility of meeting the man himself, Jake, to discuss with him his career path into sports journalism. The boys are all passionate about their chosen careers and would like to learn from the best about what inspires and motivates Jake, and to hear his story first hand on how he established the High Performance Foundation. A short while after posting the video on social media platforms, Jake replied and agreed to arrange a meeting with the boys! This morning, Mr Logan met with the trio and presented them each with a copy of High Performance by Jake Humphrey and @liquidthinker Damian Hughes. We are really excited about how this story will pan out for the boys, so watch this space! #teamhealing #highperformanceacademy #sportsjournalism

It's the last day of term and our High Performance non-uniform day is going down a storm! Alongside the Harbour Learning Trust D.A.N.C.E values of Delight and Joy, Ambition, Nurture, Collaboration and Empowerment, this is the first year Healing Academy pupils have worked with the High Performance ethos, which promotes equipping young people with the mental strength and skills to thrive, focusing on resilience, confidence, and employability. We have made commitments to both these visions, embraced them and run with them! We have had such an unbelievable academic year, which has run smoothly mainly down to our amazing pupils and talented, committed staff. We are very lucky. 🥲 Jake Humphrey #teamhealing #highperformanceacademy @foundation_hp
