As part of our Careers Programme, our Year 9 pupils recently took part in a workshop led by the Inspirational Learning Group. Working in teams, pupils were challenged to build towers using only playing cards, lollipop sticks and Sellotape. Their structures were then tested to see if they could support up to ten metal sheets, with the tallest successful tower crowned the winner!
This was a fantastic opportunity for pupils to develop their problem-solving skills, collaborate creatively, and explore potential career pathways in engineering. Well done to all involved, and thank you to the Inspirational Learning Group for visiting us!

Two teams of our exceptional Year 12 and Year 13 pupils recently represented our school at the Lord Mayor’s Quiz, held in the Grand Hall at the University of Birmingham. This annual event brings together schools from across the region to celebrate academic excellence while raising funds for local charities. Our pupils had the fantastic opportunity to meet the Lord Mayor and gain valuable experience taking part in such a high-profile event.
We are proud of all our pupils for their effort, teamwork, and professionalism in representing the school so admirably.
It was also wonderful to catch up with alumni Jayden, Mia and Lola, who are now studying Politics and Psychology. Seeing our former students thriving in their chosen fields is a powerful reminder of what our pupils can go on to achieve.
If you would like to take part in opportunities like this, applications for our Sixth Form are open until 1 December. Find out more here: https://chaseterraceacademy.co.uk/sixth-form/sixth-form-admissions-information/
