At the recent Birmingham Civic Society Next Generation Awards the teams from Handsworth Grammar School achieved one Gold Award, one Silver Award and three Bronze Awards. This is a great achievement.

Handsworth Grammar School enjoyed its’ annual Prizegiving in Big School on Friday evening. It was fantastic to see so many proud Parents and relatives celebrating with Staff and Students alike at our annual event. Mr David Wheeldon was our principal guest and gave a thought provoking speech prior to distributing the prizes which addressed the whole audience. Ethan Griffiths and Sharaye Campbell our Deputy Heads of School delivered a very confident Vote of Thanks.

Year 12 Student Thomas Stroud has been invited to take part in a visit from HRH Prince Edward the Earl of Wessex when he visits The Stonehouse Gang who are celebrating their 75th Anniversary year and its involvement in the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. In 1956 the Stonehouse Gang was one of the pilot groups for the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme, which was later chaired by Sir John Hunt, who in 1957 opened the Stonehouse Gang’s building in Brunel Road. The Stonehouse Gang is a youth club which is a thriving and active hub of the local community. It is centred on the Selly Oak, Weoley Castle and Bartley Green areas of Birmingham. It enjoys over 3000 attendances each year and is continuing to grow.
