Last half term all Year 9 students gained an understanding of the main concepts of cyber security through an online platform called ‘Cyber Explorers’ developed by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT). We were also fortunate to have had some ‘live’ lessons delivered by Gogglebox star Baasit Siddiqui!
Our Year 12 & 13 students enjoyed a post-18 careers event on 19th October, arranged by Mrs Barley-Morey our CEIAG lead and Mrs O’Donnell our Careers Co-ordinator.
Representatives from a host of local companies, including Wright Hassall Solicitors, WPR (Public relations-B’ham), Coventry Building Society, Third Kind Games and the Armed Forces joined us for the day and our students were able to talk to them in small groups to learn about the range of opportunities that are available within these sectors.
Universities including Warwick, Aston, De Montfort, Cardiff, Loughborough, Falmouth, Oxford Brookes, Worcester and Coventry, along with apprenticeship providers such as Keller Engineering, Warwickshire County Council & the NHS, were also available to give advice to students on Higher Education and training opportunities.
We are so grateful to all those who supported our event on the day and the student's feedback showed they really enjoyed the event which will help them in making informed decisions going forward in relation to their post-18 career journey.
As an International School we want to provide opportunities for all of our students to experience the world in different ways. Our Year 7 students enjoyed a trip to Birmingham Botanical Gardens to enable them to get a taste of different natural environments e.g. rainforests and deserts in the glasshouses. The students attended over three days in October with their Tutors in their Colleges which also gave them an opportunity to build relationships within their Tutor Group.
As part of our charity and community work, we will be supporting Macmillan’s Coffee Morning on Friday 13 October with a cake sale
Students are invited to bring in cakes to the Year Lead office (C037) on Friday morning, before the start of period 1.
Cakes will be sold at break time for 50p each. The proceeds will support Macmillan’s vital work in funding Macmillan nurses, answer calls on their Support Line, give financial support and more.
Any questions, then students can ask Mr Butler in C037.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Thank you to all students who brought in a selection of fantastic cakes and to all who supported the event in buying cakes

We are delighted to share, once again, that our students here at North Leamington School have received fantastic GCSE examination results. On behalf of all the staff at North Leamington School, we would like to congratulate each and every one of them, for their hard work and positive attitude throughout the year.
Congratulations to all students in Year 13 at North Leamington School who have yet again received outstanding results! Such results, which places the school in the very top percentiles for performance nationally, have been a trend in place for many years now. We are so proud of all our students - not only in what they have achieved academically but also how they have developed as terrific, well-rounded and caring individuals.
On Monday 3rd April I had the honour of laying a wreath on behalf of NLS dedicated to the eighty-three boys who gave their lives in two World Wars so that we may live ours. Below is a wonderful account and pictures from Mrs Walsh of her trip to share.
The following presentation has been delivered to students as part of our end of term messages this week.
