Headteacher Commendations were given to these Cipher Club students thus week for their codebreaking skills in a nationwide competition – The National Cipher Challenge.

This is an annual cryptographic competition organised by the University of Southampton School of Mathematics and our boys completed all ten challenges set in the exciting task for schools that was called ‘The Lighthouse Conspiracy’ this year.

The challenge this year was to track down and defeat the Lighthouse Conspiracy by solving encrypted messages and our students loved the challenge and solving the codes.
