We Are Not "Problem Children": Inside A Normal (Tech) School | Inside Crest Secondary - Part 1/3

Crest Secondary is not your ordinary secondary school. Many students struggle academically, have complex family backgrounds or come with baggage of one sort or another. They require additional help, attention and encouragement. And unlike other secondary schools, all teachers at Crest signed up to teach there. They feel a sense of mission for these students.

In the first of this three-part series, we are introduced to a group of teachers and students as they navigate life behind the Crest school gates. From secondary one classes with students fresh from primary school to the secondary four cohort preparing for the N-Levels, we see the unique environment that makes Crest special.
