Chess Success

Our Chess Team recently pulled off an impressive feat, gaining second place in an online trust ‘fast chess’ tournament! We had students from multiple different year groups on the team, and they truly showed what they’re made of. They played for almost two hours, giving it their all and just narrowly missed the top spot to Ormiston Bolingbroke Academy.

It was a fantastic display of quick thinking and strategy from our students, and we’re incredibly proud of them all!

Here’s how the academies finished:

1. Ormiston Bolingbroke Academy

2. Ormiston Horizon Academy

3. Wodensborough Ormiston Academy

4. Ormiston Ilkeston Enterprise Academy

5. Ormiston Maritime Academy

6. Brownhills Ormiston Academy

7. Ormiston New Academy
