Sixth Form Drama Trip

This term, the Drama department took all their A-level Drama students to the Victoria and Albert Museum in London to watch a digital version of their set text "Equus" by Peter Shaffer, starring Daniel Radcliffe as the disturbed Alan, who has blinded six horses, and Richard Griffiths as the tormented psychiatrist Dysart who is trying to make sense of this violent act.

The students found watching a theatre version of the play extremely helpful, as in the written exam they are presented with an extract from the play, and they have to write about how they would perform one of the roles and how they would stage it, focusing on a design element.

Great British Spring Clean

An intrepid group of Sixth Formers showed their community spirit when they took to the footpaths and verges around the local area to clear them of litter as part of the National Keep Britain Tidy Campaign. Six bags of rubbish were filled and a prize was awarded for the most unusual find! The group enjoyed their litter pick so much they have vowed to go out weekly!

Year 12 UCAS Trip

All of Year 12 visited the UCAS Convention in Brighton this term.

Students attended presentations, visited stands and talked to representatives from 100s of different Higher Education providers about different courses and apprenticeship routes after Sixth Form.

Parliament and Supreme Court Visit

In February, 38 of our Year 12 historians took part in a visit to the Houses of Parliament, the Supreme Court and the National Portrait Gallery. Our students had an enriching day investigating how laws are made and how laws are interpreted. They also learned about the nature of the changing relationship between the people, Parliament and the Monarch. The students walked some of the journey taken by King Charles I on the day of his execution in 1649 from St. James’ Palace to the Banqueting House and were lucky enough to also catch the changing of the guard.

Our students represented out Community with great enthusiasm and engaged throughout the day.
