Staff members son chosen for Team GB

Following on from the whole town Inset in October last year around growth mindset Mossley School welcomed an under 24 GB athlete, Jack Schofield, into school this week. An ex Eaton Bank student Jack talked to the children about the challenges he has faced to maintain his fitness whilst studying for an architecture degree at Bath University. Jack spoke to the children about reaching “The pit” and how the journey he had undertaken to get out had needed a growth mindset.  Jack will be representing GB in Austria this summer in the European Championships competing in a middle distance triathlon. Jack is also waiting to hear if he has qualified for the long distance team to race world championships in Oklahoma in September along with the European Championships in Poznan at the end of July. Jack is currently looking for additional sponsorship to enable him to fund races and the possibility of a time trial bike. Should you be in a position to sponsor Jack please contact him at:  jbs31@bath.ac.uk or visit his website at www.jack-schofield.net
