Congratulations to our Class of 2022 on their brilliant GCSE results today!
Over the last two days, both in and out of school, students have enjoyed a variety of trips, events and activities as part of our Creativity Festival. Take a look at some of the superb creative activities that they have been going on here:
Every year, Marden students do some brilliant work with This Is Creative Enterprise, and we are delighted to share with you the student outcomes from this year.
You can find the blog posts here:
“I think I will take away the skill of communication and confidence.” Cailey, Marden High School.
It’s clear that they have all worked incredibly hard and it has certainly paid off! We are very proud with the results. We hope you are too!
“I have achieved a design I am happy with along with a sense of pride because I was working outside my comfort zone.” Rowan, Marden High School.
A former Marden student, Josh Evans, from the Class of 2021, has been celebrated at the House of Commons as Community Volunteer of the Year in a Premiership Rugby Parliamentary Awards ceremony. Congratulations Josh! To read more about his achievement, follow THIS LINK.

After several years of inaction on the DofE front, for the second weekend in a row Marden students had the opportunity to visit Housesteads Roman Fort and take part in an expedition along Hadrian’s Wall. Here’s some photos of our Year 9s and 10s taking part.
A selection of photos from our Class of 2022 leavers’ prom this week. See you in August for results day!
On Tuesday some of our Year 9 students had the opportunity to visit the digital production facility, PROTO, based in Gateshead’s Baltic Quarter. As part of this year’s Boys’ Network programme, in partnership with M10, the group of boys were taken on a private tour of PROTO’s offices and facilities.
The Creative Arts and Tech centre is certainly thriving in this part of the North East, and the boys were encouraged to explore the recording studios, photographic studios and 3D capture technology, along with virtual and augmented reality experiences.
It was a fantastic afternoon out with students gaining valuable insight into Tech and Creative Arts careers, learning about new equipment and even entering into a North East podcast competition!
PROTO are also offering a free three day summer school in August, whilst places are limited there is still some availability. Here is some more information:
