Past Pupil Addressing European Commission

We are incredibly proud to share an inspiring achievement from one of our past students Nicole Marinos

Earlier this year, Nicole was invited by the European Commission to speak as a panellist at the European Day of Persons with Disabilities (EDPD) 2025 Conference in Brussels.

Opening the first panel, Nicole shared a powerful personal testimony on experiences of inclusion and exclusion. Nicole’s contribution received an overwhelmingly positive response and deeply resonated with attendees.

Following this, Nicole has since been invited to speak at several further events, including an upcoming address to the European Parliament on World Hearing Day this March, marking a return to Brussels once again.

We are immensely proud to see former students using their voices to create meaningful change and to advocate for inclusive education.
