Our annual Open Evening on 17 September 2025 saw Year 6 students and their parents visit Heston Community School for a presentation and tour of the School. The families were shown round by guides from Years 8-11. Every Curriculum Area had created interactive displays that grabbed the attention of both parents and students. The feedback as families left the site was exceptional.

“Best school we visited”

“Looking forward to coming in September”

All my family come to Heston…even my Mum came here…she remembers Mr Berdesha teaching her!

“Everywhere looked great”

Huge thank you to all those who took part and supported the event and showed off all the amazing things that happen at Heston.

Mr M O’Hagan [Deputy Headteacher]

I was filled with pride when I was asked to represent my school to new prospective families, through my role as Student Governor. Standing on that stage was not only a testament to what the School poured into me, but the endless opportunities and support they had invested into my potential. Ranging from sports-based enrichment to academic challenges to public speaking opportunities. I shared with families the work I do as Student Governor and what it has taught me from the importance of communication to advocating for my fellow students as a member of the Student Council. I was able to share all these experiences with prospective parents to advocate why this school would be a perfect match for their children.

During our School’s Open Evening, I had the wonderful privilege of giving a speech to prospective students and parents, sharing my experiences as a member of our school community. I took the opportunity to talk about my growth as an individual at Heston as well as the bountiful opportunities provided to me over the seven years I have been here. I enjoyed highlighting the supportive environment, dedication of teachers, and lasting memories I have made to demonstrate the invaluable importance the School holds to me. Through my speech, I hoped to have given parents insight into the incredible environment Heston presents so that they can make the best decision for their child. I am so grateful that I was able to play a part in showcasing what makes our school a hospitable, welcoming and inspiring institution in which to learn and grow.
