Foundation News: Princethorpe College Admissions - Pathway to Princethorpe Podcast

Princethorpe College Admissions have a new podcast, Pathway to Princethorpe. The series covers all you need to know about the process of applying for Princethorpe College. The podcast episodes include all manner of topics, from important dates and deadlines, the process for applying for scholarships, bursaries, the co-curricular programme on offer and the academic curriculum.

It is designed to inform parents of what the College has to offer and what sets it aside. The Admissions Team, consisting of Catherine Rogers, the Registrar and Georgia Newborough, the Assistant Registrar, discuss all you need to know on your journey through the admissions process. In certain episodes they are joined by key staff who share their field of expertise with you, getting a great insight into the process, allaying any concerns parents may have.

Launched at the beginning of the summer holidays, there are now eight informative episodes in the series which can be found on Spotify, YouTube and Amazon Music. More will be released over the coming weeks as we approach Entrance Exams in November.

Comments, Registrar, Catherine Rogers, "We hope that these bite-sized episodes, which cover many areas that we get asked about frequently, will allow parents to listen and gather essential information at their convenience, whether commuting, relaxing, or enjoying a cup of tea."

In their final year at Crackley Hall, Junior 6 take on leadership responsibilities to support the school. This morning, in Celebration Assembly, Mr Duigan had the pleasure of introducing the new Captains, Stewards and Prefects for the 2024-2025 academic year, and of presenting pupils with their badges of office.

As well as the Heads, Deputies, House, Subject and Sports Captains, there are also the Student Council and Form Prefects who work with and represent pupils across the school. Every pupil in Junior 6 takes on a role either as a Captain, Steward or Prefect and together they support the running of the school. Mr Duigan spoke about the importance of their responsibilities and encouraged pupils to rise to the challenge of their new roles as excellent leaders and role models for the younger pupils.

We look forward to working with you Junior 6.
