Over 650 pupils from Years 6 to 11 took part in the Bebras Computing Challenge this November, joining more than 460,000 students from across the UK. Each participant earned a certificate, with a remarkable 80 Westgate pupils securing the prestigious Gold certificate for ranking among the top performers nationally. A special shout-out goes to seven exceptional Year 7 pupils who achieved the highest possible national score!
Congratulations to all the pupils who participated – this year saw the largest number of Westgate participants ever, with nearly half of the school's students getting involved. This is the third year that The Westgate School have participated in the competition which is organised by the Raspberry Pi Foundation and the University of Oxford and designed to encourage logical thinking and problem-solving skills.
