5 students receive the very top grade of 9 in maths 

On Wednesday, 19^th July 2017, a group of students were selected to take part in the Challenge 4 Change programme called ‘Teammates Not Inmates’. This was a unique opportunity to develop self-discipline, communication skills and resilience. 

The last week of summer saw Year 9 take part in a highly motivational workshop focusing on developing the right skills to get ahead in the world of work. Lead by Michelle Whaite of the Transformation Trust, on behalf of Barclays, the workshop quickly engaged the students. 

Friday, 14^th July saw the culmination of Engineering Action Week at ARUP’s Manchester HQ at Piccadilly Place.
