We are delighted to celebrate the wonderful achievement of our Year 10 BTEC dancers who represented Myton by performing at the Leamington Spa Christmas lights switch-on last week!

Mrs Clemons was very proud as the group performed engaging routines on the main stage, adding to the festive atmosphere for the whole town. 

It was a brilliant opportunity for them to showcase their talents to a wide audience. We are extremely proud of their professionalism and fantastic performance. Next up – Warwick Castle! 

Maya from Year 10 began her Young High Sheriff duties this week as she joined Warwickshire’s High Sheriff at the World Remembrance Day for Road Traffic Victims. This was a moving and beautifully organised memorial service to honour those whose lives have been tragically lost or seriously affected by road collisions.

Some of our students joined with musicians from Kenilworth School, North Leamington School, Oakley School and Southam College last week for a Come and Play Orchestral event organised by Warwickshire Music Hub. 

Nearly 70 students in total took part, performing two contrasting pieces – the Blue Danube and Havana – to Year 1 Oakley School students to support their learning about the orchestra. It was fantastic to hear the progress made in such a short time and the final performance was enthusiastically received by the young audience! 

Thank you to Oakley School for hosting the event and to Ms Cheung and our visiting instrumental teachers for helping the students to prepare the music ahead of the event.

At Myton, we are passionate about empowering our students to become word rich—confident readers, articulate speakers, and skilled writers who communicate like scholars.

Every day, our students are immersed in Tier 1 vocabulary: the familiar, everyday words we all use. We also recognise the importance of Tier 3 vocabulary—those subject-specific and technical terms essential for academic success. However, it’s the Tier 2 vocabulary—those rich, versatile words that appear across subjects—that truly elevate our students’ language. These words help them express themselves with precision, understand complex texts, and engage more deeply with their learning.

Our fantastic BTEC Dance students enjoyed a truly inspiring trip to the Belgrade Theatre this week, accompanied by Mrs Clemons and Mrs Cross.

The students were treated to a viewing of Shadows, a captivating two-part modern dance performance that was both thrilling and thought-provoking. Everyone had a magnificent time!

We are incredibly excited for our BTEC dancers to channel this experience and the fresh, innovative ideas they gathered into their upcoming Component 3 devised piece. Get ready to see the sparks of inspiration take shape in their brilliant new work!
