Today was an unforgettable day for our pupils as we welcomed Pudsey to the primary phase! The excitement was off the charts as children joined in fun activities, learned about the incredible work of BBC Children in Need, and shared lots of smiles. Huge thank you to everyone who helped make this visit possible and to our amazing pupils for their enthusiasm and generosity. Together, we're making a difference... one paw print at a time! #ChildrenInNeed #PudseyBear #PrimaryEducation #CommunitySpirit #MakingADifference

Last week, the U13 girls football secured a fantastic 11–2 win over Weston Favell Academy in the County Cup. It was a superb all-round performance, showcasing excellent precision, fluency, and teamwork from start to finish. The execution in every area of the pitch was excellent. Well done, girls. Onto the next round!

This week we welcomed CCS Alumni student Rory Bates back to speak to Year 13 and Year 12 Economics students about his journey in the subject on his way to A* success last year. From hints and tips regarding key content to know, through to his own examples of the best way to display the skills learnt in the exam, Rory provided some invaluable and honest insights into what it takes to achieve outstanding A Level results. The students asked a fantastic range of questions and Rory's enthusiasm really shone through and left them all with a renewed drive to as to how they can further their own A Level journey. We would like to just extend a huge thank you to Rory for giving up his time to help the current students excel in their A Level journey.

We are incredibly proud to share that our Year 13 student, Ioana Marcu, has been awarded the Johnny Harris Award this week. This prestigious award is presented each year to the most improved musician in the ACF Corps of Drums. Ioana's dedication and talent have made a real impact, both as a cadet and senior NCO in our own CCF, where she plays the bugle calls at our school's Remembrance Parade, and now as a valued member of the Corps of Drums. Well done, Ioana!

We're delighted to announce that several of our talented pupils have been shortlisted in the South Northamptonshire MP's Annual Christmas Card Competition A huge well done to all our budding artists! You should be very proud of your creativity and wonderful festive designs. We wish all our shortlisted students the very best of luck in the final result!

This morning, our wonderful School Cadet Force proudly paraded to honour Remembrance Day.

We are incredibly proud of our cadets for representing our school with such honour, and discipline. #LestWeForget #remembranceday2025
