From Post-16 Pathways to Premier League Coaching!
We were delighted to welcome a tutor from LLS, based at The Grove in Market Drayton, who spoke to our students about the wide range of Post-16 pathways available to them. It was a valuable opportunity for students to explore their next steps and start thinking about their futures.
Alongside this, we were thrilled to host a special session for our Year 10 Sports Studies students, led by a guest coach from Everton Academy. Students not only took part in a practical football coaching session, but also gained insight into career opportunities within coaching. The coach demonstrated how to plan and deliver a high-quality technical session, bringing real Premier League experience to our students.
It was an inspiring morning filled with positivity, engagement, and exciting conversations. Our students gained a fantastic insight into both Post-16 options and the many opportunities within football and coaching.
A huge thank you to our visitors for such a memorable experience! ... See MoreSee Less

🎶 What an incredible day bringing our Trust together through music!
It was fantastic to welcome 150 singers from Marches Academy Trust schools to St Oswald’s, Oswestry for an inspiring African Gospel Singing workshop. A huge thank you to all the children who joined us – you were all absolutely brilliant! 🌟
The energy in the room was amazing, with children not only enjoying a wide range of songs but also learning about their meaning and importance within African culture. The atmosphere was full of joy, confidence and celebration, with everyone encouraged to take part and express themselves.
We also loved hearing this reflection from Emily:
“We really enjoyed yesterday. We got to sing all sorts of different songs and learnt about what the songs actually mean to African culture. The people were very full of life and so was the crowd. You didn’t have to feel embarrassed to have a good time. Me and my friend even got a special shout out for our effort and interest in the event. It was genuinely a great experience and I would 100% go again.”
👏 What a fantastic experience for everyone involved!

Sowing The Seeds Of Success
As Year 8 reach the end of their Ecosystems topic, they’ve been getting hands‑on with some brilliant practical science. After exploring photosynthesis, pupils have now been investigating the minerals plants need from the soil to grow and stay healthy.
Students are growing seeds in different mineral solutions, carefully changing the concentration to see how it affects seedling growth.
📊🌿 This experiment is helping pupils apply key scientific skills:
✔️ Planning fair tests
✔️ Observing and measuring growth
✔️ Comparing results
✔️ Understanding how nutrients affect living organisms
A fantastic example of curiosity, practical enquiry, and real science learning in the classroom!
Lovely to see such great organisation and teamwork Year 8. Not to mention excellent science!
