No human being, since the dawn of recorded time, has ever become a more perceptive reader and/or analyser of literary texts because they can spot Peripateia and Anagnorosis at fifteen paces. And they wonder why there's a crisis in A level English recruitment. 2/2

Wow, what a night! 👏👏👏
With two more fully booked nights to come, we didn't want to give too much away...
...needless to say, tonight's opening of The Comedy of Errors was fantastic. Well done to all the cast and crew for putting on such a enjoyable evening! 🎭 🎶 🍸

Year 7 pupils have had a great day hearing from author Matt Dickinson, eager to read his books and to try out some creative writing for themselves. Also challenged and inspired by his stories of climbing Mount Everest!

Well done to all the budding authors who produced some brilliant 'flash fiction' for this year's Toubkin Cup creative writing challenge, and congratulations to the winning entries. What a variety of style, plot and characterisation can be achieved in just 150 words!

Received a lovely review from a parent praising the 'tour de force performances' of the cast and I totally agree. Well done @Tormead_Eng @Team_Splendid and Year 10s. Have a restful weekend! Be legendary.

Miss Sheridan very much enjoyed the abridged 25 minute Hamlet written, directed and performed by our U6! She gave it 5 stars and dubbed it 'hilarious!' #remoteworking #tormeadtogether #empoweringeverygirl

We would like to recommend some books for you to pick up this half term! Ms Stevens recommends:
The Midnight Library by @matthaig1
A magical library where you can relive and mend your past mistakes and choose your perfect life? Too good to be true... or are things that simple?

Screenshots inspired by ‘Skellig’. Great to be reading this novel with Year 7 in these difficult times. A book full of hope and possibility. #tormeadtogether #remotelearning #empoweringeverygirl
