The Priory School, Shrewsbury

The Priory School is a secondary school with academy status in the market town of Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England. The school was opened in September 1939 and became a Business and Enterprise College in 2003, with the addition of Applied GCSE courses to the curriculum. The Priory was a girls' grammar school linked to the Priory Grammar School for Boys, but has since become a mixed gender school. The Business and Enterprise training centre was opened in September 2004 and became an Enterprise Hub in April 2006, and was awarded High Performing Specialist School status at the start of the academic year 2007–08. The school has no sixth form, but is in partnership with the Shrewsbury Colleges Group, which was created by the merging of the two main local further education institutions (Shrewsbury Sixth Form College and Shrewsbury College), which the large majority of pupils go on to attend. The school was granted Academy status in June 2012. It became a multi-academy trust in 2016 with Coleham School and St Martins, followed by Thomas Adams School in March 2020. In 2013, an Ofsted inspection report rated the school as 'outstanding' in all four categories (in both of its previous inspections), making the school the top performing in the county by Ofsted's criteria. Houses Each of the school's six houses, named after famous people from or associated with Shropshire, battles it out for the 'House Cup', received by the house with the most points at the end of the house year. They are currently called Attenborough, Frank, Hawking, King, Nightingale, and Parks (Named after Sir David Attenborough, Anne Frank, Stephen Hawking, Martin Luther King, Florence Nightingale, and Rosa Parks). The Houses were formerly known as Acton, Baxter, Clive, Darwin, Housman and Webb, however this was changed via a vote during the 2020-21 academic year. This runs from the start of the summer term to the end of the following spring term, so pupils in Year 11 are always still at school when the cup is awarded. Every year the school holds a variety concert organised and presented by Year 11 Drama and Music Officials, with support from the Head of Drama and Music. It was formerly known as the Eisteddfod but was renamed the 'Pro Show' in 2005. The event showcases dancing, singing, bands, drama sketches and stand-up comedy, all performed by pupils. In 2014, a new video category was introduced, allowing pupils to be awarded for multimedia creations. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this show was done virtually for the 2021-22.

The Punch Bowl, Mayfair

The Punch Bowl, at 41 Farm Street, Mayfair, is a public house, dating from circa 1750. It is listed as Grade II by English Heritage. It is a Georgian building and, although altered over the years, retains many period features including a dog-leg staircase, internal cornicing and dado panelling. History The pub featured in the documentary film I'm Going to Tell You a Secret, which followed Madonna in 2004 and showed her and her husband Guy Ritchie on a night out at their "local". In March 2008 the pub was bought for a reputed £2.5 million by Ritchie and Madonna, with the involvement of nightclub entrepreneur Piers Adam. In Ritchie and Madonna's November 2008 divorce settlement, Ritchie gained ownership of Madonna's share of the pub. The pub has become renowned for the number of celebrities who visit it. Complaints by local residents about noise and other disturbances led to a review of the pub's licence, with some restrictions imposed by Westminster City Council in December 2009. The winner of a 14 December 2009 eBay auction, organised by the Evening Standard newspaper for the charity Kids Company, paid £2,214.12 to "Have a pint with Guy Ritchie at The Punch Bowl". On 25 March 2013, the Evening Standard reported that Ritchie had sold the pub. The Punch Bowl re-opened on 20 October 2014, after having a full refurbishment.

Queen's Hall, Minehead

The Queen's Hall in Minehead, Somerset, England, was built in 1914 on the sea front of Minehead as a theatre for films and live performances. It was designed by W. J. Tamlyn, a local architect and built of brick with Bath Stone dressings by J. B. & S. B. Marley. The first show was Oh I Say, which had previously been at the Criterion Theatre in London. The brick building has three bays, with a decorated fascia and iron-and-glass canopy. The auditorium, which is 100 feet (30 m) by 46 feet (14 m), has a barrel roof with an elliptical proscenium arch with ornamental cartouche. Orchestra stalls and the balcony provided the majority of the seating, and there were two boxes. It was a venue for various ballet and theatrical touring companies and was the first place in the town at which a sound film was shown. In 1930 a Western Electric sound system was installed. The theatre and cinema closed in 1939 with the outbreak of the Second World War, with the building being used as a canteen for troops. The building suffered major damage in the storms of 1996, with the glass canopy over the entrance being destroyed and flood damage to the hall. The building was restored for use as an amusement arcade and then a public house, at one time called the Mambo bar. Until 2015 it operated under its original name, "The Queen's Hall," as a pub. The pub closed in 2015. The lease was sold in 2012 for an undisclosed sum. It incorporated upper and lower ground floors with the balcony set up as a VIP area. There were also a kitchen and washing up area with a manager's flat above. It was refurbished and reopened in 2016. References External links Queen's Hall, Minehead in the Theatres Trust database

The Radclyffe School is a mixed comprehensive school for 11- to 16-year-olds, located in Chadderton, Greater Manchester, England. History Grammar school The school was originally called Chadderton Grammar School and opened in 1930. It was officially opened in October 1930 by David Lindsay, 27th Earl of Crawford. It had 300 boys and girls, which rose to 700 in 1950 and 900 by 1958. It was decided to split the school into two schools – a boys' and girls'. This provoked protests from parents. In 1959, the school became Chadderton Grammar School for Girls with around 600 girls in the 1960s. The boys' school, a grammar-technical school, was on Chadderton Hall Road. Comprehensive It was renamed Mid Chadderton Comprehensive School after grammar schools were abolished in September 1975, and the boys' school became the North Chadderton School. The two sites of the North Chadderton Secondary Modern School were split between the two new schools based on the former girls' and boys' schools. The name "Radclyffe" was taken from a local land-owning family in the 19th century who had owned the land that the schools stood upon. The school was originally located across two sites – the Lower School (Years 7–9) on Broadway and the Upper School (Years 10 & 11) on Hunt Lane.

By 1985, all 5 year groups were full and the sixth form was becoming established. Four Houses were set up; Grosvenor, Weymouth, Townshend and Wolferstan, named after historically prominent Tamworth families and landowners. In 1999, a fifth House - Peel - was established. Following the loss of the sixth form in 2012 (a Sixth form College was built in Tamworth by Landau Forte Academy) the school reverted to four Houses and Grosvenor ceased to exist. In January 2018, the school was criticised by many (including parents) for the introduction of rules for maximum nail length for students. Facilities The school operates the Rawlett IT Academy, which offers Microsoft Office 2003 Specialist courses and exams. It has many sports facilities such as a four-court sports hall, sprung wooden gymnasium, dance studio, meeting rooms, changing rooms, three floodlit county standard tennis courts, floodlit county standard netball court, floodlit synthetic pitch and playing fields. In 2012, the two music rooms were converted to a gymnasium which is free to students during school time and up to 4:30pm when the general public can pay to use it. Connexions Card launch The Education secretary Estelle Morris chose Rawlett to launch the Connexions Card, on 14 June 2002.

The Redway School, Milton Keynes

The Redway School is an all-age (2–19) state special school for children and young people who experience severe learning difficulties, serving the children of the City of Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire, England. It is situated in the Netherfield district of southern Milton Keynes. History The school opened on 26 April 1993, upon the closure of Oliver Wells (Physical Difficulties) and Queens (Severe Learning Difficulties) Schools. Until September 1993, the school had two sites, in Netherfield and at the Queens campus on Whalley Drive, Bletchley. From September 1993 and until about February/March 1997 the school occupied the Whalley Drive site whilst the Netherfield site was extended and refurbished. The reason that the extension and refurbishment took so long was that the first scheme was not allowed to go ahead. It was called off in January 1994 by the Department for Education (DfE). This was because the local education authority, then Buckinghamshire County Council, had not complied with all the DfE requests and had not listened to the parents. From 1 April 1997 the school became the responsibility of Milton Keynes City Council. Inspections In February 2003 Ofsted's annual report named The Redway as a "particularly successful school". As of 2024, the school's most recent inspection was in 2023, with a judgement of Good.
