Another Christmas, another Denstone College Combat Carols. Some fantastic festive fun to keep the magic of Christmas alive through our last week of term. Well done to Selwyn house who were crowned victors on this occasion! #Christmas #Chapel #CulturalCup

At the last 3rd Form Food for Thought seminar of the term, pupils put their argumentative and critical thinking skills to the test, as we discussed a number of philosophical and current affairs issues, including whether modern society has lost its grip on the idea of objective truth; whether, in the light of the recent tragic flooding in Spain, we are responding appropriate to climate change; and to what extent we should trust 'experts', if they have vested interests. It seemed appropriate to the season that we should enjoy a good, old-fashioned ding dong...#DenstoneCollege

A big shoutout to Izzy for organising a festive treat! Mrs Robinson's Form brought the holiday spirit to life by decorating the tree in our wellbeing garden. A wonderful way to spread cheer and brighten up the season! 🌟💚 #DenstoneCollege #FestiveSpirit #WellbeingGarden

Carols by Candlelight at St. Chad's Chapel There’s nothing quite like the warm glow of candlelight filling the chapel as we gather for this cherished annual tradition. A moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate the joy of Christmas together. #CarolsByCandlelight #StChadsChapel #ChristmasTradition #FestiveMagic #ItStartsHere

From sparking new interests to envisioning career possibilities, this was a key step in their journey. 🌍📚 #ItStartsHere #SixthForm #FutureFocused

We are pleased to introduce our new Head of Athletic Development, Mr Chambers. ''My passion for Athletic Development comes from my time playing and coaching Elite Rugby. My career started at Hartpury College where I led strength and conditioning for College ACE League 1st XV, BUCS Super League 1st XV, and Hartpury RFC the championship rugby side. The college system is where I found my spark, the progressive element and drive from athletes cemented my future in wanting to act as a catalyst for development. This is when I found Denstone, the perfect opportunity to benefit a wide range of athletes throughout their school life''.
