A Tremendous Effort: Celebrating Our Year 11 GCSE Journey!

As the final GCSE exam papers are collected, we want to take a moment to commend our incredible Year 11 students for their immense dedication, resilience, and hard work throughout their GCSE examination period.

The last few weeks, typically from early May to mid-June, have been a demanding time, culminating in the culmination of years of learning. Our students approached each paper with focus and determination, a testament to the rigorous preparation, countless hours of revision, and the unwavering support they received from their teachers and families.

It has been wonderful to see so many of our students emerge from their exams with a sense of accomplishment and genuine confidence. The smiles and positive comments after challenging papers were a clear indication of how prepared they felt and how well they believe they performed. This self-assurance is a true marker of their growth, not just academically, but in their ability to manage pressure and rise to a significant challenge.

We are incredibly proud of the effort each and every Year 11 student has put in. Their commitment during lessons, attendance at revision sessions, and diligent independent study have been inspiring. They have not only demonstrated their academic capabilities but also developed vital life skills such as perseverance, time management, and self-belief.

Now, as they await their results in August, we encourage them to enjoy a well-deserved break and look forward to the exciting next steps in their educational journey. Their hard work has undoubtedly laid a strong foundation for future success.

Well done, Year 11! We couldn't be prouder.

Maths Minds Ready for Feast of Challenges!

We are excited to announce that a team of our talented Key Stage 3 mathematicians represented our school at the inaugural Trust-wide KS3 Maths Feast!

Organised within our Trust to foster mathematical talent and collaboration, this engaging competition brought together bright young minds from across our family of schools. Our team of four specially selected students — Charlie (Year 8), Praneeth (Year 7), Maks (Year 8), and Rishvanth (Year 9) — travelled to Strood Academy on Wednesday, 16th July, accompanied by a dedicated teacher.

The Maths Feast is a unique and exciting event that involves a series of challenging rounds, testing problem-solving skills, teamwork, and quick thinking across various mathematical disciplines. It's a fantastic opportunity for our students to apply their knowledge in a dynamic, competitive, and fun environment, pitting their wits against their peers from other Trust schools.

We are incredibly proud to share that our team was awarded the Certificate for the Most Collaborative Team — a testament to their outstanding teamwork, communication, and mutual support throughout the competition.

We wish our brilliant team a huge congratulations for their achievement and thank them for representing our school with such pride, enthusiasm, and mathematical excellence!
