There is something about the New Year that makes us sit up and take stock of our lives. I suppose …

Year 8 and Year 9 Drama pupils from @lborohigh and @lborogrammar enjoyed a visit from the Theatre Centre performing My Brother`s a Genius. It explores themes of neuro diversity, family and being a teenager. Combining poetry, grime and dance, this explosive new play took them through family struggles, neurodiversity and the weight of expectations. It’s a story about learning to fall, fail and find our own ways to fly.
"The occasional boarding experience was very well organised and felt completely safe and secure. Mr Blackman (Housemaster of Denton house) contacted me in advance and talked me through everything, from the evening timeline, where the boys would be sleeping – I was welcome to view the room beforehand if I wanted – food for the evening and for breakfast, and the planned activities. My son`s phone and iWatch were taken away at about 21:00, and they had lights out at 21:30, and he even had his games kit washed ready for morning football club 🙌." – Parent

We`ve witnessed some great success on the football field recently as both our U15 and U18 teams are through to the ISFA Mercian League Final! Both teams played excellently, demonstrating the techniques and skills they`ve been developing on the pitch and are now preparing for the finals which will take place in April.
The newly-refurbished Library balcony has quickly become a valued study space for Year 13 students. Designed with a calm, sophisticated feel, the area offers a university-style environment where students can work independently. Comfortable seating, open desk space, and a quiet atmosphere create the ideal setting for sustained concentration during this important academic year.
Year 13 is a critical stage in a student’s education as many prepare for examinations, university applications and the transition to life beyond school. The balcony provides a flexible space where students can organise their own time, revise independently, and develop the study habits expected at university level.
Access to the area is seen as a privilege that reflects the maturity and responsibility of the Year 13 cohort. The environment itself mirrors the transition students are making – from structured school learning to a more independent and self-directed approach. In this way, the Library balcony has become more than just a study space; it is a symbol of growth, independence, and readiness for the next chapter.
