The Y12 A Level PE students visited Loughborough University’s Human Performance Centre in Friday to take part in some fitness tests and experience working in their altitude chamber.

It was a fantastic opportunity for our students to experience first hand the world leading facilities they have at Loughborough for their research and athlete development programmes.

Massive congratulations to all students for their efforts on the day, and especially to Louis S for his monumental effort during the VO2 max test. Seeing Anthony Joshua training in the gym didn’t hurt either!

Looking forward to putting some of the knowledge gained back into practice in the classroom!

Well done again to the whole class.

With a panel of industry experts, apprentices and graduates, this Inclusive Futures in Engineering with Network Rail event will introduce you to the opportunities available for women in engineering!
