Congratulations to our Year 12 Students who, last weekend, completed their Duke of Edinburgh Gold Qualifying Expedition.

Over four days the students walked in the region of 75km (46 miles), reaching heights of up to 800m within the Snowdonia National Park all whilst carrying all of their kit, in some cases weighing up to 17kg.

Our Year 12 Politics students enjoyed a very successful visit to Parliament this January.   

Our students enjoyed a tour of the Houses of Parliament and were granted a Q&A session at Millbank House with Baroness Hayter and Matt Western MP.  A range of questions were asked by each student with thoughtful and insightful comments from our hosts.

It was a fantastic experience for our students and we are grateful to Baroness Hayter and Matt Western for their time in supporting our students.

Our Student Leaders for Diversity & Equality recently delivered their inaugural Culture Day: an opportunity to celebrate culture in general but also the specific cultural heritages of the students in our terrific Sixth Form. A key highlight was the representative dress on show and the sharing of foods from various cultural backgrounds.

We are delighted to say that through the selling of food created by the students and from various heritages a tremendous £162.20 was raised for the BLAM UK charity – BLAM UK being an organisation supporting achievement and mental health and which was identified by the student body.

Well done all!

We were delighted that, as part of our diverse Enrichment Offer in Sixth Form, 13 of our terrific Year 12 students successfully completed an E.P.Q. (Extended Project Qualification) last year and were presented with their certificates today.

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.

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.
