We are incredibly proud to share Lydia Griffiths’ journey since joining Marches School in Year 7.
After continuing her studies at Marches Sixth Form with A levels in Psychology, Sociology and Drama, Lydia went on to study Mental Health Nursing at Manchester Metropolitan University. Over three demanding years, she completed the 2,300 placement hours required to qualify, working across acute mental health wards, community services including CAMHS and Early Intervention in Psychosis, as well as rehabs and prisons.
Lydia qualified in September 2025 as a Registered Mental Health Nurse with a First Class degree and is now working at a local prison, one of the largest prisons in England and Wales. Her role includes assessing mental health needs, managing a caseload of men with serious mental illness, coordinating care, and supporting people at some of the most difficult points in their lives.
Lydia speaks honestly about the challenges of her training, particularly while living with a disability, and about the resilience it took to keep going when self doubt crept in. Her story is a powerful reminder that progress is not always easy, but it is possible, and that compassion, determination and belief can open doors.
Thank you, Lydia, for sharing your story and for the difference you are making every day 💙

Joel Milner was invited to join the commentary team at TNS, a fantastic opportunity from the club.
The match was streamed live on YouTube and Joel absolutely rose to the occasion. Both Jack, the match commentator, and Sam, TNS’s Head of Media, were incredibly impressed with Joel’s confidence and natural ability, especially as this was his first experience behind the mic.
A huge well done to Joel for representing himself and the school so professionally. We are excited to see where this talent takes him next 👏🔥
You can watch the broadcast featuring Joel’s superb supporting commentary here

This Mother’s Day, we want to take a moment to recognise all the love, care and support that surrounds our children in so many different ways.
Today is a celebration of mums, step‑mums, grandmas, carers, aunties and all the special people who nurture, encourage and champion our children every day. We also hold space for those for whom today may feel difficult, including anyone missing a mum, those who wish to be mums, or families who mark today in their own quiet way.
To every family in our school community, thank you for the kindness, patience and love you give 🌷

The Year 10 squad travelled to Wrekin College to compete in the Trophy competition following last year’s Plate victory.
Facing tougher opposition, the Marches girls rose to the challenge and produced several strong performances throughout the tournament. A highlight of the day was a well earned 5–3 win against Abraham Darby, showing great determination and control. They also played an excellent match against a strong Ellesmere side, narrowly losing 9–16 in one of the most exciting games of the day, with end to end play and impressive teamwork on show 🏐

Our Year 10 Spanish students put their language skills into action with a hands on panqueques cooking lesson 🥞
Following ingredients and step by step instructions entirely in Spanish, the classroom was transformed into a lively kitchen full of teamwork, delicious aromas and plenty of laughter. This practical session helped strengthen vocabulary, build confidence and gave students a real taste of Spanish learning in action.
