We are delighted to celebrate the outstanding achievements of three of our pupils in this year's prestigious Oxford University Anthea Bell Translation Competition. More than 25,000 students from across the country took part, and Tom W (Year 9) achieved exceptional success in the French category, being named the overall winner for the Midlands. Toby H (Year 9) received a commendation in German, while Jack W (Year 11) was awarded a commendation in Spanish.

The names of all three pupils have been published on The Queen's College, University of Oxford website in recognition of their achievements. This is a fantastic accomplishment, and we warmly congratulate Tom, Toby and Jack on their well-deserved success.
