The maths department are ready to learn CPR with #RSAHLive25 — we’ve even got our teddies ready to practise!

Some of our S2 were practising scale drawings today by designing their own theme parks! They did really well! #brilliantbroughton

We hope those of you who got results today are happy and that your hard work paid off, but please remember that there are more important things than exams! You are worth just as much today as you were yesterday!

Mr Prowse was outside with some young people today picking up litter, organising it into different categories and making bar charts! Great effort! @BroHighOfficial

Miss Porte’s P7 class were doing some great problem solving today with pentominoes. Special shoutout to Julian, Aaron, Jessica and Lena who managed to correctly place the pieces to fill the grid! Well done ☺️👏🏻 @BroHighOfficial

More congratulations are due to Ivan Quintero Villaverde who was accepted to the Young Quantum Researcher summer school! He will learn about quantum computing and what it means to be a scientific researcher. Well done!!

Congratulations to 7 of our new S4 girls who were accepted into the @KPMG Future Leaders Technology Insight programme. They will spend 2 days learning about the future of technology and its exciting career opportunities. Well done!!

After our outdoor S3 event a few weeks ago, we were able to gift our winners with prizes generously donated from some local Stockbridge shops! Massive well done to everyone, especially our overall winners Evie and Mia!

Congratulations to everyone who competed in the UKMT Junior challenge and those who won an award—we’re really proud of you!
