End of term 1 report: January 2026
Background:
In August 2025, Teaching and Learning Targets were set for Term 1 2025–2026 on our return to school. These targets were guided by feedback received from all stakeholders in May 2025 through surveys of all stakeholders, staff & student focus groups, and staff discussion. Post December 2025 House-Exams, surveys were sent to all stakeholders (parents, students and teachers). This feedback alongside ‘focus group’ feedback (Student Council, Parent-Teacher meetings, staff meetings such as Year Head Meetings and Senior Management meetings) will guide future targets.
What a Stripe Young Scientist and Technology 2026 experience for our two Stratford College groups competing in this year's competition!
The whole of Stratford College and community are so, so proud of 5th Year students, Hao Wen and Ritvik, for winning one of the top four awards in this year's competition - the Runner Up Group Award. They also won the Institute of Physics Special Award. A big thank you to Dr Ryan for mentoring the 5th year students. Major congratulations to TY students Callum and Sanket for getting a Highly Commended award for their FluxChess project in a very challenging category, mentored by Ms O'Kelly.
