School of Sanctuary

Schools of Sanctuary are a national network of over 380 primary and secondary schools, nurseries and sixth forms all committed to creating a culture of welcome and inclusion for refugees and people seeking asylum.

Driven by teachers, school staff, parents, governors and community groups, this network supports the thousands of young people seeking sanctuary in the UK, raises awareness of the issues facing people in the asylum system, challenges misconceptions and builds social cohesion.

We are excited to be embarking on Drake becoming a School of Sanctuary.
Our work will be guided by our Sanctuary Pupil Council so that the voice of young people is embedded at the heart of all we do.
