A NEW state-of-the-art science block has been officially unveiled at a Wyre Forest secondary school.

MP Mark Garnier cut the ribbon to open the refurbished Attwood building at Wolverley CE Secondary School this week.

Guests, including members of the surrounding community, were also given a tour of the new facilities during the open day that was held on Monday (December 14).

The building includes six fully equipped laboratories with state of the art interactive whiteboards and short throw projectors, two refurbished food technology rooms and a further two modernised classrooms.

Additionally, corridors have been updated and there are brand new windows and fascias throughout.

Bryn Thomas, Head teacher at Wolverley CE Secondary School said: “We are very lucky to have brilliant science teachers at the school who really get the best out of our students. Last year’s Year 11s achieved fantastic GCSE science results with 75 per cent achieving an A*-C grade.

“Now with the new facilities, our current and future students can push on to achieve even better results.

“Ensuring we have the best facilities possible is high priority for us and we’re delighted that Worcestershire County Council recognised that we are a rapidly improving school and invested in our new science block.”
