🎨🐘 Our new entrance mural is complete! 🐘🎨

Take a look at our wonderful new mural at the front of Furze Platt! The vibrant design has been inspired by the student-designed elephants created for our involvement in Trunks Across the Thames, the fantastic Thames Hospice fundraising art trail.

Our students and staff have worked together to bring the mural to life, creating a striking new entrance feature that celebrates the creativity and spirit of the Furze Platt community.

And this is just the beginning! 👀 In October, our two elephant sculptures, Borough and Scout, will return to school and take pride of place in front of the mural as a permanent feature.

A huge thank you to our dedicated team of student painters, Mrs K Barnes, Mrs L Hawkins and our Site Team for all their hard work in making this project possible. 👏

We can't wait to see the finished entrance come together later this year! 💗🐘

🏎️☀️ GreenPower: Dedication Doesn't Take a Summer Holiday! ☀️🏎️

While many of us are enjoying the summer break, our fantastic GreenPower team are already looking ahead to the next racing season!

Last week the team have been working tirelessly on Car Number Two, developing their engineering, problem-solving and teamwork skills. The car is really starting to come together, and we can't wait to see the finished result!

A huge well done to the team for showing such fantastic dedication and enthusiasm—even during the summer holidays! 👏

A-Level Results Day 2026
🎓 It takes a community to support success!

As our Year 13 students celebrate their results and prepare for their next steps, we want to recognise everyone who has helped them along the way.

A huge thank you to our students' families and friends, and to every member of the Furze Platt Senior School staff who has shared their knowledge, skills and passion to help our young people realise their ambitions.

Our Sixth Form team, led by Mr Pete Ging, Head of Sixth Form, have also played a vital role. He described this year's students as a "particularly special group" who have consistently demonstrated purpose and resilience throughout their studies.

Headteacher Dr Andrew Morrison added that these outcomes are "the result of a fantastic team effort" across the Furze Platt community.

Most importantly, however, congratulations to our students themselves. 👏 You should be incredibly proud of what you have achieved.

We wish you all the very best for the next chapter of your lives! 💙
