Scholarship success

7th February, 2012

Six final year pupils are celebrating this week after learning that they have been awarded scholarships to their chosen senior schools.

There were Music scholarships to Uppingham School for Chan K and Gideon T and an Art scholarship to Malvern for Cassie B. Head of Art, Paul Dougan, said “Cassie is a talented artist who thoroughly deserves her success. She produced an outstanding portfolio of artwork and did very well in her interview and assessment at Malvern.”

In addition, three girls have won scholarships to Moreton Hall. Flo W-S achieved double success winning both an All-rounder and a Sports scholarship; Tara B was awarded an All-rounder scholarship; and Tia B’s award was for Sports.

These recent successes add to an already impressive roll of honour for Packwood’s current senior year group. Last term there were Sports scholarships for Ed B (to Rugby), George H and Freddie F (both to Shrewsbury) and earlier this term Eddie T and Jonty H were both awarded Sports exhibitions to Malvern.

Many congratulations to all of our successful candidates and, with senior school scholarship exams on-going and more to come over the next few months, we are confident of further success.
