Mrs Clemons, Mrs Fairhurst, and Mr Davis loved welcoming our incoming Year 7 students to our recent hosted tea parties. Our new students were treated to a bespoke VIP tour of the school, brilliantly guided by our amazing current Year 7 representatives and Year 12 ambassadors. A huge thank you to everyone involved, we are so proud of our student helpers and simply cannot wait for our new cohort to officially join the Myton community!
Thank you to those Year 10 students who helped at Coten End Primary School’s Sports Day this week. We received a lovely email from a Coten End School parent expressing their admiration of the students, saying how kind, supportive and respectful they were throughout the events. We always enjoy hearing about how well our students have represented themselves and our school!
Today we said a heartfelt goodbye and good luck to our Year 13 students. They have been a fantastic year group, embodying our values and virtues.
During their final week we have enjoyed Spirit Week. On Monday, they all wore a sticker with a little lie. On Tuesday it was anything but a bag (we had everything from a sledge to a shopping trolley with tyres and bedside tables to boot). Wednesday was crazy hair day; the photos speak for themselves! Thursday was colourful uniform day and today was ‘dress as something beginning with the first letter of your name’ e.g. Ben as a banana.
Congratulations to Zoe in Year 9 who has been shortlisted as a finalist in the search for a West Midlands Young Poet Laureate. Last week she went to Birmingham to meet the other finalists and for all of the young poets to perform their poems in a final push to be chosen as one of two regional poetry ambassadors. Here’s her account of the day:
The Sixth Form team would like to thank the 2025/6 Sixth Form Study Leadership Group for all of their hard work in supporting various charities throughout the year. They have put on many events and raised awareness across the school community, and have been nothing short of amazing, raising an incredible £4165 in total (£1942 specifically for Sarcoma UK in memory of Aaliyah Godfrey). The other charities supported are: Young Minds Matter; Oddballs; Kissing it Better; Children in Need; Red Nose Day and World Book Day. They have also raised an incredible £1308 to enhance their own leavers events!

Our recent sell-out performances of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory were a real treat from start to finish. A brilliant show with an even better cast – full of energy, talent, and many golden moments. I am always proud of what pupils at Myton can achieve but this was proof that our shows just keep getting better and better. The dedication, commitment, creativity, and hard work shown from everyone involved has been nothing short of scrumptious, and I thank you all enormously. We can’t wait to welcome you back for our next performance in the new year!

Sixth Formers held their charity day, Aaliyah Day this week, holding cake sales, a raffle and a pink and white non-uniform day. Mr Griffin had his hair dyed pink and white (and other colours!), and students added to a Disney mural. We’ll let you know next week how much money has been raised for this great cause. Donations can still be made via ParentPay.
Some of our Year 10 Hospitality and Catering students visited Mallory Court Hotel last week to undertake the first session of the Roots to Shoots programme. The programme has been designed to give students a greater awareness of the importance of sustainability within the hospitality industry. We will be revisiting Mallory Court in September to harvest the crops the students have sown.
Thank you to ex-student, Gab, who visited A level PE students before Easter to demonstrate physiotherapy diagnostic techniques for several sporting injuries. Gab is now a qualified Physiotherapist and his excellent presentation reinforced knowledge key to the A level PE course and provided great insight into the role of a Sports Physiotherapist.
for week ending Friday, 3 July 2026.
