Pupil Leadership Team Blog

Chess Club

Our pupils run our lunchtime clubs at Broadbent Fold. Art Club, Lego Club, Wellbeing Club and now we have Chess Club. This is organised by our year 5 pupils and has been very successful. One pupil even has made us a set using a 3-D printer! Now that is dedication. What a lovely group.  


T20 Women's World Cup Cricket

A group of KS2 girls were chosen to attend the T20 Women's World Cup Cricket at Old Trafford. They were chosen by Mrs Parker and Miss Mainprize for being outstanding role models for behaviour and sport this year. We danced our socks off and some were inspired to start playing. We even made our first appearance on Sky Sports! What a fabulous day. Well done to the girls. 


National Recognition

We have received accreditation for all our hard work with keeping our pupils healthy physically and emotionally. This is incredible and we are so proud of our team! 


Congratulations to Noah

Our very own cricket captain has been selected to play an Under-11 interleague fixture with Lancashire Cricket Foundation. This is amazing news and we are so proud of him. Good luck Noah and show them how good your bowling is! 


We welcomed our Assistant Director of Education & Inclusion

Today we welcomed Mr Emlyn Wright, who is the Assistant Director of Education & Inclusion in Tameside. Our Head Boy and Prefects showed Mr Wright around our fabulous school and he had a chance to visit our new sensory room. Pupils were delighted to share what we do on a daily basis at Broadbent Fold. Our favourite comment from Mr Wright "You are a very forward-thinking school." We loved this comment as it reflects our ethos to get pupils ready for a future in employment.


Careers Fair

This week is Careers Week at Broadbent Fold. We have engineers, a Team GB athlete, a sports journalist, scientists and designers attending our school to inspire our pupils to a world of employment. We held a careers fair and pupils had the opportunity to ask questions to our visitors. A big thank you to the magistrates, mental health practitioner, GMP, Findel Education, Ashton Sixth Form and the Director of Sports from the Stamford Park Trust. It was a fantastic morning and our pupils fully engaged with all the information to help them with their own future.  


Mental Health Week

Today our Wellbeing Leader Jorge and our Mental Health Practitioner Nechen visited every member of staff and provided them with '25 ways to fill our cup'. Staff also got to choose from drinks, cakes and fruit as a special 'pick me up'.
