A tale of two fortunes for our Year 9 boys footballers ⚽

In the Telford Cup, the team secured a fantastic 3–2 extra time win against a very physical William Brookes School. An outstanding defensive performance gave a strong platform for midfield and attack, and after hitting the woodwork four times, the game was taken into extra time where Idsall dominated possession and deservedly took the win.

Just four days later, the boys faced HLC in the Presidents Plate, a side that has beaten Idsall in recent seasons. A dominant first half, built on physicality, tactics, and fitness, saw Idsall go in 1–0 up despite several missed chances. After the break, tired legs and some fierce tackling led to three quick goals for the opposition, with the game finishing 3–1.
A tough result, but one that showed real progress and belief, and a match that could easily have gone the other way.

Our badminton qualifiers did not disappoint, with some fantastic progress shown since September 🏸

For most of this squad, this was their first experience of competitive badminton outside of lessons, making their achievements even more impressive.

The girls secured a brilliant 5–0 win against St Martins of North Shropshire to progress as second place in their group. After a narrow semi final loss, they went on to a tough bronze medal match against Shrewsbury Girls’ High, just missing out with a close 105–92 scoreline. There were lots of lessons learned, and they will be back next year as Year 9s, ready to challenge again.

Our amazing readers from Key Stage 3 enjoyed a hot chocolate and a cookie as a reward for being the highest SRP achievers in the school this half term 📚☕

As well as food and drinks, students also enjoyed spending time on the computers in the LRC.

“I like that Sparx gives you loads of different books to choose from. You can choose the genre and then the book. It’s great that it doesn’t just give you a book.”

Wesley G (Y8)
“Sparx Reader deserves a 9 out of 10! It focuses on your skills and achievements.”

Olivia J (Y8)
“I find Sparx Reader really helpful for my dyslexia. You can use a ruler or line guide and change the background colour to help if you don’t like white. It also tells you what words mean if you don’t know them.”

We support our students in a variety of ways, and our Year 11's have been amazing by coming in before school for short bursts of revision and a bit of breakfast ☕📘

These calm, focused sessions are helping to build confidence and keep momentum going as exams approach.

Morning revision sessions run Wednesday to Friday from 8.30 to 8.50 am, and it has been brilliant to see such commitment and positivity from our students.
