The team, comprised of Phoebe Jackson (U6), Pauline Ji (U6), Vinna Sun (L6) and Georgie Lang (L6) excelled. This was the first time a Moreton Hall team had qualified for the National Final and the girls departed with the happy knowledge that they were already “Moreton’s best team ever”. Moreton’s Music Department Wins National Award We are delighted to announce that the Moreton Hall Music Department has achieved the ISM (Incorporated Society of Musicians) Bronze Certificate in Music 2017. It has been awarded for the excellent results in GCSE Music last year where more than 10% of all GCSE students at Key Stage 4 took and achieved an A*-C in music, placing Moreton within the top schools across England. Helen Rayner, Director of Music, commented: “In a time of uncertainty for the arts, this award highlights the value and importance of music within education. We are delighted to be acknowledged for our excellence in music.” Moreton Hall - A Top ‘Value Added’ School in the UK The 2016 MidYis ‘Value Added’ results have been published. Yet again, Moreton is at the top of the tables for both the independent sector and on a national level. In both the Remove to U5 and U4-U6 categories, Moreton falls within the top 2% and 4% of the country. 4 The Moretonian 2017 A69377 Moretonian Magazine 2107_AW.pdf Page 4 of 94 Business Lunch with Lord Hague This year’s Annual Investec Business Lunch at Moreton Hall saw guest of honour, Lord William Hague give an outstanding speech to 600 guests and pupils.

National Success for Upper Sixth Artist Cicely Peers (U6) has been selected from over 2,400 entrants to have her A Level painting, ‘Shadow Bars’, exhibited in the Royal Academy’s A Level Summer Exhibition Online. She is one of 45 students selected as having submitted ‘Outstanding Work’, by a panel including Royal Academician and winner of the Turner Prize, Wolfgang Tillmans! Careers Convention This year’s Careers Convention proved to be the most impressive to date. Over seventy professionals and university delegates lined up to offer insightful advice to both students and parents. Particularly valued was the presence of so many Old Moretonians whose ‘horse’s mouth’ advice was much appreciated by the current U5 and L6 students. The diverse array of delegates and speakers was highlighted by one parent, who commented, “My son is at a prominent boys’ independent school, down south. They offer nothing on careers which is comparable to the scale and quality of this.” Indeed, from the Russell Group universities, to the range of professionals, there can be no doubt that Moreton’s Careers Department did a sterling job.

Read more on page 52. Confirmation 2017 The Bishop of Shrewsbury, Mark Rylands, presided over Moreton Hall’s Confirmation service at St. Oswald’s Church. This was a very happy occasion in which ten girls, all from Lower 5, were confirmed and two of their number, Alysha Brown and Saskia Wells were baptised. Moreton Sportswomen Play on National Stage For talented sportswoman Milly Home (U5), gaining a place in the U19 England Lacrosse Team was, in her words, ‘a childhood dream; achieved’. Alongside specialist England training sessions, Milly recently put her top level skills into practice as she relished the opportunity to play for the U19 North Regional Team in the Senior Regional Tournament in March. Moreton sports coach, Holly Harrington also part of the England squad, represented the North A Regional Team in the same tournament. Holly commented: “It was a really great weekend of Lacrosse, the level was extremely high and it was really good to get out and play against tough competition. The U19s, and Milly especially, played exceptionally well against the senior teams.” 6 The Moretonian 2017 A69377 Moretonian Magazine 2107_AW.pdf Page 6 of 94 Moreton Hall has been named by The Times as the UK’s top performing non-selective school following Moreton Hall Ranked outstanding A Level and GCSE results.
