We’ve been updated by the local authorities that parking restrictions will be enforced in the areas surrounding the school. This action is being taken independently to us, in response to ongoing safety and access concerns.

We’re sharing this information to advise all parents and carers to ensure they park only in authorised places to avoid penalties, and to help keep our school and local community safe. Thank you for your cooperation.

Game 2 for the U14 boys team sees them go 1-0 down with only 2 minutes to go 🙈

Currently 3rd in the group.

Wrekin next 🤞
