Testimonials from staff and students
THOMAS ACADEMY LONDON
November 2020
“It was a pleasure having Navleen in to speak so beautifully to our children. Her enthusiasm, kindness and humility was appreciated by all of us. Navleen matched the content of her presentation slides to the enquiry questions that children will be investigating, which made the whole experience more worthwhile.
Listening to Navleen’s assembly was the perfect start to what will be a challenging half term (National Lockdown 2), as she reminded us of our four cornerstones and the mindful and reflective approach we should take to life to ensure that as educators we aim to support academic progress for our learners but more importantly build decent human beings.”
Mrs Clare James
“I really liked Navleen’s assembly because she was really kind and she taught me things about Sikhism. I didn’t know anything about Sikhism, but now I know that Sikh’s never cut their clean hair because their hair is living!”

“Navleen was great. I liked how she spoke out the values of Sikhism and how they were like our school values.”
