Our Year 13 Biology pupils have been hard at work completing Required Practical 10 of their A-Level course!
Using a choice chamber, they’ve been investigating how different environmental variables affect the movement of mealworms. This hands-on experiment has helped them develop their scientific skills and deepen their understanding of animal behaviour. Well done, Year 13, keep up the great work!

We would like to take a moment to celebrate one of our amazing pupils, Ruby from Year 10. Last week, Ruby received the incredible news that she had finished her treatment for leukaemia.
In a special assembly, Mrs E Scholes, Head of Year 10, invited Ruby to the front to ring the ‘End of Treatment’ bell in front of her classmates and teachers, symbolising the end of this challenging journey. Surrounded by her peers, who applauded her strength and perseverance, it was a truly heartwarming moment for everyone.
As a school, we are beyond proud of Ruby and all that she has accomplished. We wish her nothing but the best as she continues forward with the same determination and positivity that have carried her through.

We were thrilled to welcome the BBC Bitesize Careers Roadshow to Chase Terrace Academy today! Hosted by BBC Radio Presenter Lucas Yeomans, our pupils had the chance to hear from three panellists: Molly Beard, Artist & Illustrator, David Whitehouse, Marketing Director & Founder, and Esther Beckley, Production Apprentice. It was an especially proud moment to welcome back Molly and David as CTA alumni, showcasing the incredible opportunities available to our pupils after their time here.
Pupils heard first-hand about the panellists’ experiences at school, the pathways they chose after Post-16, and the exciting roles they hold now. They also gained insight into the wide range of careers within the BBC and the broadcasting industry.
A huge thank you to our panellists for answering pupils’ questions and offering such valuable advice!
