Selected Year 7–9 students powered through a tough elimination round for the #NationalReadingChampionsQuiz yesterday—showing sharp memories, great reading, and a dash of guesswork! So proud of all who took part. Our finalists are set. West Midlands Heat, we’re coming for you!

We’re thrilled to announce that a total of 30 students have received Oxbridge offers this year following Cambridge’s offers this week:
Aleeza Ahmed (Chemical Engineering & Biotechnology, Peterhouse)
Daniel Bodely (Natural Sciences, Lucy Cavendish)
William Bosson (Natural Sciences, Selwyn)

Mr. Lanoe would like to say a big thank you to Year 8 for a thoroughly enjoyable week in Devon. They were wonderful company, and endlessly entertaining. Here are a few final shots of yesterday’s hike on Dartmoor.

The concentration is palpable as Group 1 begin their Pyrography designs.

Surfing was a huge hit with the young, and slightly less young!

Day 3 in Devon and groups 1 starts the day at the Manor House with T-shirt printing.

Meanwhile in Croyde, we’ve had a glorious day on the beach.

Beautiful evening in Devon!

I feel so blessed to have such an amazing team! Thank you guys for being such stars today and helping out during K.E.S. Open Morning. We’ve welcomed hundreds of guests today we hope everyone had as much fun as we did.

Look at the stunning work produced last night. Much fun was had by all! Thanks to @fauxpaskes.bsky.social for supplying the drinks.

A huge Thank You to @charliehigson.bsky.social for an inspiring talk to our Year 8s about his life as a writer and the creative process behind writing the Young Bond and The Enemy series. We even had young fans of The Fast Show in attendance! Stay tuned for other exciting events.
