Twelve of our Year 9 pupils competed in the splendour of Birmingham’s Great Hall against schools from across the length and breadth of the West Midlands. Our teams did us proud winning some rounds and all three of our 4 person teams came comfortably within the top 10. The visit also included a tour of the university and highly engaging physics lecture from Professors of the Physics department at Birmingham. One of our pupils commented that they could “really see myself studying here if I work hard enough” and all agreed it offered a brilliant insight into what life and learning at a top Russell Group university could be like.
