Thank you to Runshaw College for welcoming a group of our Year 10 triple scientists to take part in their 'Surprising Science' event today.

Our pupils took part in hands-on practical experiments in the areas of Biology, Chemistry and Physics, gaining a valuable insight into science pathways post-16.

Today's visit to Runshaw is the beginning of a programme of activities around next week's National Apprenticeships Week, where we will be showcasing pathways, including apprenticeships, available to pupils after they leave Brownedge.
