This term sees the launch of our new Primary Enterprise Scheme. I have visited all of the primary schools in our family of schools to launch the event with Year 5 pupils who will be spending their summer term creating products to sell from recycled materials.

Wybunbury Delves, The Berkeley, Church Lane, Weston and Shavington Primary schools will raising lots of money for their chosen charities.



Work Experience Forms

All Year 10 pupils should have, by now, contacted your Work Experience Placements to arrange an interview and to complete your agreement forms together.

For those pupils who have not yet done so, please contact your placement AS SOON AS POSSIBLE to arrange your interview.

If FULLY completed Agreement forms are not received back at school before the end of May, your placement may NOT go ahead and you will miss out on a valuable learning experience.

Year 10 Interview Conference

On Thursday 15th March all Year 10 pupils took part in our annual interview conference.

Representatives from 25 different organisations interviewed individual pupils to help them become more confident in an interview situation.  Pupils were given feedback on their application form, punctuality, clothing, politeness, cooperation, answers to questions and how well prepared the interviewer thought they were.

A number of pupils commented on the event by saying it was terrifying at first but they overcame their initial nerves and thought it was a great opportunity.  I hope they feel more prepared for their Work Experience and College interviews which will be happening over the next few months.  Well done to everyone who took part, you were a credit to yourselves and the school.
