⚽Student Spotlight: Celebrating Mason’s County Football Success ⚽
We are incredibly proud to celebrate Mason in 9.Alderford.30, who has recently achieved fantastic success as part of the Shropshire County football team.
The team secured a thrilling 4–3 victory against Warwickshire to win their league and have now earned their place in the national final. What an incredible achievement 👏
Mason shared his excitement after the match: “I was so excited to be part of the team and cannot believe that we won against Warwickshire! It was such a tough and close game. We won 4–3 and I scored the goal to make it 3–3… and it was some goal! I cannot wait to go through to the national final.”

Our Year 7 cricket team played their first match of the season in a friendly against Bishop Heber 🏏
The game was played in great spirit, and it was fantastic to see so much potential on display from the team. A brilliant start to the season!
If your child is interested in joining the squad or simply wants to try something new, they are very welcome at training. Sessions take place on Wednesdays from 3.15 to 4.15 with Mr Barnett.
We would love to see more students getting involved and giving cricket a go.

Our Year 12 Psychologists have been getting hands-on with their learning, exploring different sampling methods using skittles as their participants 🍬
This fun and engaging activity helped bring research methods to life, supporting students in understanding how samples are selected and how this impacts the reliability and validity of psychological studies. Sampling is a key concept in psychology, allowing researchers to draw conclusions about a wider population from a smaller group.
A brilliant example of creative, practical learning that supports deeper understanding and prepares our students for success in their studies 👏

Year 13 enjoyed a truly memorable and well-deserved leavers’ celebration, marking the end of their school journey in style 🎉
The afternoon began on the field with an ice cream van, a relaxed picnic and a lively game of rounders, giving the students time to unwind together and create those all-important final memories ☀️
This was followed by the Year 13 Leavers Assembly, a reflective and uplifting celebration of their time at school. Students and staff looked back at old photos and special moments, alongside a series of light-hearted awards that brought plenty of laughter to the hall 😄
It was a warm and fitting send-off for a fantastic year group. We wish all our Year 13 students the very best of luck with their upcoming exams and every success as they move on to their next exciting chapter.

We are incredibly proud to celebrate Poppy’s fantastic achievements on the cricket field 🏏
This season, Poppy has continued to impress, representing both Allscott Heath and Frankton Cricket Clubs with great dedication and skill. Following outstanding performances at county trials, she was selected for the Shropshire MCC Foundation team, which is a brilliant achievement.
Poppy has already made her debut in a thrilling match against Ellesmere College Girls, where Shropshire secured victory by just one run, with Poppy making a valuable contribution with the bat.
With more local fixtures ahead before regional MCC competitions later in the summer term, we wish Poppy the very best as she continues to develop and showcase her talent.
Join us in congratulating Poppy on this amazing success 👏
