👹🎨 Spooky Sculptures in Year 9 Art!
Our talented Year 9 students have been getting creative, and a little creepy, by sculpting their very own gargoyles in Art!
Inspired by Gothic architecture, each sculpture is packed with personality, imagination, and just the right amount of spooky flair. From fierce faces to twisted expressions, these gargoyles are truly a sight to behold!

🧠 Building Strong Learners from the Start – Our Key Stage 3 Revision Curriculum in Action! 📚
At The Marches School, we believe that effective learning strategies shouldn’t start in Year 11, they should be embedded right from the beginning. That’s why we’re proud to be rolling out our Revision Curriculum across Key Stage 3, helping students build powerful, lifelong study habits early on.
This year, our students have been exploring:
✅ How memory works (and how to make it stick)
✅ The power of using flashcards effectively
✅ The benefits of self-quizzing
✅ How to create knowledge splats – quick-fire brain dumps to show what you know!

🌈 Pride at The Marches School 🌈
We are incredibly proud to have held our third annual Pride celebration last Friday! This event is a meaningful part of our continued commitment to inclusion, diversity, and acceptance across our school community.
Our Pride events create a safe, supportive space where students and staff can express themselves freely, learn about LGBTQ+ history and culture, and stand together as allies. It’s just one of the many ways we strive to ensure everyone in our school is welcomed, respected, and valued for who they are. 💖
A huge thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the day so positive and empowering!
