Brilliant futures powered by Human Intelligence – empowered by Bridewell AI

“This is a powerful opportunity for student voice to influence inclusive, engaging digital innovation.” — John Towers MBE, Bridewell Royal Hospital Foundation

Continuing work with our AI for Good research partners at the University of Surrey and Royal Holloway, University of London, we were excited to kick off the next iteration of Bridewell AI research and development this week.

Through ‘real life’ human-centric research with Bridewell educators and pupils, we are co-designing and shaping best practice for safe, ethical and inclusive use of AI in education. Bridewell AI is at the vanguard of powerfully integrating all important ‘human skills’ and values with leading edge technology in the classroom and is already being used to by our pupils and educators to support accelerated critical thinking, study skills and knowledge development.

Our next phase focusses on differentiated learning, adaptation, and inclusive digital innovation. We will be profiling learning differences and examining how bespoke, adaptive, teacher-led AI learning combined with timely support can enhance learning pace and drive uplift in educational outcomes for all Bridewell pupils.

🏏Girl’s cricket continues to grow at King Edward’s

Since 2021, our girls’ cricket programme has gone from strength to strength in both scale and quality.

It has evolved from a purely softball pathway to a structured pathway with a strong emphasis on hardball cricket.

Last season was our largest to date, featuring 70 fixtures across nine teams, with 35 hardball matches and four established hardball sides. Key successes during this period include a U13 softball county finals appearance, strong wins against sides such as Charterhouse U14A and Tormead U15A, and competitive fixtures against schools like Guildford High and St John’s Leatherhead.

In 2026, our focus is on consolidating the hardball pathway across all age groups, continuing to expand fixture opportunities, supporting player development, and ensuring a smooth transition for new players entering the game.

From 43 fixtures and no hardball cricket to a nine-team, predominantly hardball programme reflects substantial progress and a strong foundation for continued success.

The edges are flying, and so is girls’ cricket at King Edward’s!

🚨🎶 New Music Alert!

We’re incredibly proud of Upper Sixth pupil Andrew, whose latest original track, Sunday Morning is now live on Spotify. His musical talent spans multiple instruments and genres - from classical performance to contemporary production - and this release is hopefully the start of many more to come.

At King Edward’s Witley, we give young musicians the skills, support and opportunities to grow. Andrew has embraced every experience from ensemble work to instrumental lessons, and it’s been a joy to support his musical journey.

Listen now on all platforms!
