🌟 The first few days of secondary school are a big milestone.

Our Year 7 mentors have loved helping students settle in, make new friends and feel part of Team Warriner.

We are incredibly proud of how everyone has embraced the challenge.

We are delighted to share that Mr McCaig, Teacher of Music at The Warriner School, has been named as a recipient of the Royal School of Church Music’s inaugural Young Church Musician Award 2026 for his work at St Mary’s Church, Banbury.

The award recognises young musicians making a significant contribution to the flourishing of church music within their communities and celebrates Mr McCaig’s work as a musician, conductor and educator in Banbury and beyond.

This latest honour follows Mr McCaig’s Silver Award at the Pearson National Teaching Awards in 2024, while the Banbury Early Music Festival, which he co-directs, has also been nominated for Audience Project of the Year at the REMA Awards 2026, bringing international recognition to Banbury’s growing early music scene.

Congratulations Mr McCaig!

The Warriner School is pleased to share that Mr McCaig’s Banbury Early Music Festival has been nominated for Audience Project of the Year at the REMA Awards 2026, bringing international recognition to the Festival and its work within the Banbury community. Alongside his work at The Warriner School, Mr McCaig has helped establish Banbury as a growing hub for early music, bringing professional musicians, young performers and local communities together.

This includes founding Warriner Baroque, the UK’s only state-school-based Baroque ensemble, providing our pupils with unique opportunities to explore and perform early music.

Warriner Baroque will proudly represent the school at this year’s Banbury Early Music Festival, 26th–27th September, performing as part of the Festival’s free Performers Platform Series.

We are incredibly proud to see Mr McCaig’s work with our pupils and the wider Banbury community receiving recognition on an international stage.

The Warriner School Celebrates A Level Success🎉

We are celebrating another positive set of A Level results, with students achieving some superb individual outcomes and securing exciting next steps for the future.

This year’s results reflect the hard work, determination and resilience of students, supported by the dedication of staff across the school. The school is particularly pleased to report strong progress at the highest grades, with 25% of grades awarded at A/A* and 47% awarded at A to B*.

A significant number of students have successfully secured places at their chosen next destinations, including universities, apprenticeships and well-deserved gap years, opening the door to a wide range of exciting opportunities beyond The Warriner School.
There were many excellent individual achievements across the year group. A special mention goes to Luka, who achieved an outstanding four A* grades and one A grade, and Amy, who achieved an exceptional two A* grades and two A grades. These standout results are just two examples from a cohort where there are many successes to celebrate.

Mr Smith, Head of Sixth Form, said:
“We are very proud of our students and delighted to see so many of them achieve such well-deserved results. Their hard work, commitment and perseverance have paid off, and it is wonderful to see them moving on to such exciting next steps. There are too many individual successes to mention, but every student should feel proud of what they have achieved.”

Staff across The Warriner School would like to congratulate all students receiving their results and thank families for the support they have given throughout their studies.

The school wishes every student the very best as they move on to university, apprenticeships, employment, travel and other opportunities. Their achievements are richly deserved, and the whole Warriner community is proud of them.
