An enormous amount of pride circulating DGS at the end of this week as we are able to share that our November Ofsted inspection has judged us to be Outstanding. We are delighted that our amazing students and staff have been recognised! Read more here: didcotgirls.oxon.sch.uk/333/…
🚨 The #GCHQChristmasChallenge is one week away! 🚨
We'll be setting a series of fiendish puzzles for secondary school children who'll need to call upon various skills used at GCHQ to unveil a secret message!

It might not look like much from this simple screen shot, but it's BIG news. Students can now mark their own tasks in Smart Revise. Why not give yourself a break from marking tasks this Christmas! Any new or current active task can be changed to self-assessment.
All year 7 students at @StBirinusSchool have signed up to @typingclub to develop their touch typing skills as their starter task. Fantastic progress made already! ✅
Fantastic results for Year 11 Computer Scientists at @StBirinusSchool and @DidcotGirls! We will see lots of you at @DidcotSixthForm for your next chapter in a couple of weeks!!
