Striving for excellence

Welcome from Our Head Teacher

Welcome to Chilwell School, where we are dedicated to providing the best opportunities to foster success in our students. We want everyone involved with Chilwell School to enjoy the pleasure of learning and the excitement of new challenges.

Our curriculum is broad and challenging, focusing on developing key skills. We know that a strong education is based upon the building blocks of core skills, high challenge, and a breadth of opportunity. A Chilwell education ensures that our students make strong progress to be confident adults.

Our netball teams have been busy over the last 3 weeks competing in the Broxtowe tournaments at Hall Park Academy and what a fantastic run it’s been! 🏐

Across all three weeks, the teams showed great teamwork, determination and school spirit. A special mention to our Year 8/9 team who ...finished an impressive second in their division, and to our Year 7 team who secured an incredible 21–1 win against Hall Park! 🙌

We’re so proud of all the players for their effort and attitude throughout. Well done everyone! 💪

What an unforgettable day we had at Chilwell School! ❤️

From the moment students arrived for non-uniform day, many proudly wearing red in support of Comic Relief, the energy and excitement was contagious. Break times were buzzing with our popular tuck shop and the highlight for many ...was our “soak a teacher” stall, where our head and deputy kindly volunteered to be drenched with sponges. It was definitely a crowd-pleaser! 💦 All in the spirit of doing something funny for money!

Lunchtime brought even more excitement with our very own Masked Singer event in the theatre. It was full of surprises, laughter and some truly impressive performances!

The entire day was packed with fun, silliness and a real sense of community spirit, all for an incredible cause. We are so proud to share that together we raised over £800 to support an amazing charity.

A huge thank you to all the students, staff and everyone who got involved, donated, or helped organise such a fantastic day.

It was wonderful to see so many Year 9 families at our Curriculum Choices Evening. Thank you to everyone who came along to support your children as they begin thinking about the exciting next steps in their learning journey. Choosing subjects for the next stage of education is an important ...milestone and it was fantastic to see so many students and parents engaging with staff, asking thoughtful questions and exploring the wide range of opportunities available.

Events like this are a valuable chance for families to learn more about different subjects, understand what each course involves and help students make informed choices about the areas that interest and inspire them most. We truly appreciate the time and effort families made to attend and take part in these important conversations about the future.

A special mention also goes to our fantastic Year 11 prefects, who continue to be incredible ambassadors for the school. They were on hand throughout the evening to welcome families, guide visitors around the site, and support staff and students wherever needed. Their confidence, maturity and willingness to help never go unnoticed and they played a big part in making the evening run so smoothly. We are extremely proud of the way they represent our school community.
