We are delighted to share that we have successfully secured funding from the Turing Scheme. The Turing Scheme is the UK government’s programme to provide funding for  international opportunities in education and training across the world.  Our successful application means we can offer twelve students a, heavily subsidised, opportunity to visit our partner school (Anjuman I’Islam Girls High School) in Mumbai.  

During a week-long trip students will experience lessons with students from our partner school as well as guided tours to visit significant cultural sites and museums.

Thank you to all those that joined us for our Sixth Form Open Evening - it was lovely to welcome so many current students and those prospective students from other schools who are new to NLS; we hope you enjoyed the evening and found it informative and useful.

In our market place visitors could meet with a variety of staff across our range of subjects and talk to them as well as hear from students studying the subject. Our Careers team were on hand to offer information and advice regarding post-16 options and we welcomed representatives from De Montfort, Worcester and Warwick Universities and NHS Apprenticeships.  

In our Science block staff and students were available to show the fantastic facilities and talk to students about studying the sciences at A Level. Our Art, Photography and Textiles studios were open, and the Technology rooms, for students to view work and hear more about he Arts subjects and Product Design.

 

 

 

In the theatre Head Teacher, Mr Lowdell, welcomed all our visitors and families, along with Mr Taylor, Head of Sixth Form, and Mrs McBride, Senior Assistant Headteacher SENCO.

Yesterday we welcomed our Year 11 Sixth Form applicants to their Induction Day here at NLS. It was fantastic to welcome so many of our year 11 students along with a large number of students from other schools new to NLS.

Students started the day with an informative welcome assembly before engaging in three taster lessons based on the subject choices on application.  After the opportunity of having lunch in the dedicated Sixth Form café area, and to mingle with their peers, students broke into smaller groups for a Tutor Time session before a final assembly.

Our Year 12 Politics students took on key roles this week with NLS holding a mock election for all students.

Students, Leo, Karim, Noah, Isaac, Raph and James took on the challenge of each representing a party, based on those who have taken place in the election debates on TV (Conservatives, Green, Labour, Liberal Democrats, Plaid Cymru , Reform & the SNP (whilst the students volunteered to represent the parties of their choosing they were not necessarily ones they personally believed in.)

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.
