Our More Able & Talented (MAT) pupil register is regularly reviewed, and includes pupils from Reception through to Y13. We welcome new nominations from PARENTS/GUARDIANS who believe their child may require extra challenge, or have a particular talent we may not yet be aware of?

Fantastic to return to the CITB Women in Construction event at @UWTSD! Our girls are already impressing during the activities 🌟

Experiencing how VR and digital skills are used within the Construction industry. Safely learning how to spray paint, work at height, build structures and fly a drone! Very clever and very impressive! @ids_3_18_IT #womeninconstruction2024
