  • Backwell Equestrian Team Success

    Published 08/09/25

    The whole Backwell School Equestrian team made it to the national British Showjumping finals in August 2025.  We had a team in the 90cm (Lola B, Hattie M & Briony W), Hattie M as an individual at 1m and Holly M as an individual at 60cm and 70cm.  Holly did exceptionally well to qualify in huge classes as these heights are so popular for schools.

    The atmosphere was huge for the children and horses at Stoneleigh Park in Kenilworth, with temperatures hitting 34 degrees, loud music, flags and over 50 children in each class – the fastest and the best the UK had to offer.  Our Backwell girls really did do us so proud. 

    Here are the results:

    90cm team (Lola, Briony & Hattie): 4th place nationally for Backwell School, with Hattie M joint 1st amongst the teams.

    1m: Hattie M 7th nationally for Backwell School.

    70cm: Holly M team 4th for Bristol & Somerset.

    Congratulations team Backwell. What an incredible set of results!

  • Important information for students coming in to school for A-level results day on Thursday 14 August

    Published 08/08/25

    If you are planning on coming to school next week – for A-level/ KS5 results day – please be aware of a road closure in Flax Bourton.

    More details are in this link:

    http://www.northsomersettimes.co.uk/news/25349510.a370-close-flax-bourton-five-days-august/

    It will impact all buses between Congresbury and Flax Bourton, meaning that none will run past the school on the A370 for the week. Motorists will be diverted via Long Ashton Bypass, Bridgwater Road, Red Hill, and surrounding roads.

    Vehicular access via Nailsea and A370 from Yatton seems unimpeded.

    Thank you.
