It's always inspiring for our students to discover the exciting career paths waiting for them after life at #QPHSChester
We were delighted to welcome Sally (Mrs Catton's daughter) who spoke to our Year 9s all about apprenticeships & her own journey to becoming a Payroll Apprentice.
She gave brilliant insights into how apprenticeships work, the skills she's gaining, & why this route was the perfect fit for her. Our students loved hearing reallife experiences from someone who was once in their shoes!
Thank you Sally for such an engaging & motivating talk during National Apprenticeship Week!

We have grandmasters in the making!
Our brilliant Year 8 masterminds have spent the morning putting their strategic skills to the test at the Chester Schools Together #Chess Tournament hosted by @bishopschester
Huge congratulations to Riley B, who delivered an outstanding performance & finished as runnerup only losing in his semifinal to the eventual winner!
A massive well done to all our players for their focus, teamwork & determination. We're so proud of you all!

Our Sixth Formers had a brilliant day at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge with Chester Schools Together last Saturday! After a very early (& very rainy!) start students explored the modern campus, learned about Cambridge traditions, & took part in workshops on personal statements & interview skills. A campus tour along with a Q&A with current students rounded off a very inspiring visit.
A long day but totally worth it! #dreambig #aimhigh #definingfutures
