During the Photography visit to Barcelona three students were lucky enough to attend the Champions League football match between Barcelona and PSV Eindhoven at Camp Nou. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to watch a game at Barcelona's home stadium, which is the third biggest football stadium in the world.

Jamie Margolin, a freelance film producer and cinematographer from Los Angeles has recently visited King James. He participated in a Q&A session with Sixth Form Media students as part of their Level 3 BTEC Creative Media course.

King James has raised a grand total of £394.33 for Macmillan Cancer Support at our annual World's Biggest Coffee Morning fundraising event.

Well done to our Sixth Form students for achieving another fantastic set of results in Summer 2018.

Media Studies students in Years 11 and 13 have returned from a two-day Media experience to Leeds. The trip included a range of activities designed to increase their understanding of the media industry, and various opportunities to simply try something new.

To mark the end of their time at King James, and the beginning of the next chapter in their lives, Year 13 students, teachers and support staff gathered together to enjoy an afternoon barbeque and buffet in the sunshine.

As part of our "Aim Higher' programme, a group of our Year 12 students had the opportunity to enjoy a two-day residential trip to Leeds Beckett University.

Many potential Year 12 students came to our Sixth Form Induction Day event to experience half hour taster sessions in a range of subjects, and to look into Sixth Form life.

Students are looking forward to departing on the first international visits of the academic year to the beautiful cities of Barcelona and Amsterdam.

A group of Sixth Form Photography students have been developing their creative portfolio on a multi-location trip around the North East.
