What a brilliant final week of term!
We kicked things off on Monday with our fantastic Careers Day, where students took part in a wide range of practical workshops led by employers from across different industries, giving them valuable insight into future career opportunities.
We've also enjoyed a hugely successful Duke of Edinburgh Bronze expedition in the Peak District – complete with a few very overgrown public footpaths.
Our reward activities have been a real highlight, with trips to Alton Towers, bowling, and a relaxing pizza and movie afternoon.
Today we rounded everything off with our amazing Enrichment Day, where students got stuck into everything from Mario Kart tournaments and stop-motion animation to crafts and American tag football. It was wonderful to see so much enthusiasm, creativity and teamwork.
A huge thank you to our incredible staff, whose hard work, dedication and enthusiasm make opportunities like these possible for our students.
Finally, we would like to wish all of our students a happy and well-deserved summer break. We look forward to seeing you all again in the new academic year!

Year 9 Health students have completed their NHS Cadets Programme!
After a foundation year of study, our Year 9 Health students have successfully completed the NHS Cadets Programme.
Throughout the programme, students have explored topics including first aid, leadership and communication, developing valuable skills and knowledge along the way.
They have also had opportunities to apply their learning in real-life situations, including designing games for care home residents, delivering group presentations, and teaching each other about the body's systems.
The programme has helped students build confidence, teamwork and leadership skills while gaining a greater understanding of healthcare and the important role it plays within our communities.
