Tabbitha (3rd)
Tabbitha has been outstanding with her pursuit of poetry. She came to me to ask her how to write a poem for Poetry Evening, and since then has not stopped. She has found her voice and is writing poetry almost every day - it has been delightful and inspiring to watch.
Bella (2nd)
Bella has been an outstanding art pupil this year. She has gone above and beyond in every task that she has completed. She has made wonderful progress by exercising a mature and determined wish to improve. The standard of her work, for her age, is just beautiful in terms of technical ability and creativity. It has been a pleasure to work with Bella this year.

This year, with the launch of the 2030 Strategic Plan- Forte - pupils will be recognised for embodying and demonstrating the school’s Values and Virtues.

Our Values are: Flourishment; Opportunity; Responsibility; Trust; Empathy.
Our Virtues represent a range of skill sets that can be experienced, developed and mastered here at Oswestry School. They are behaviours, character strengths, attitudes and mindsets that enable pupils to thrive at school and flourish in life. Our Virtues encourage pupils to be: Analytical; Collaborative; Independent; Innovative; Proactive; Resilient.
