Every pupil in years 7 to 13 is being given the opportunity to demonstrate their talent whether it be singing, dancing, acting, performing a magical trick or even playing the spoons!!

In order to qualify for the grand final at the end of the autumn term (date yet to be confirmed), any pupil that wishes to enter will have to go through an audition-Pop Idol style. The auditions will take place during lunch times in October. Pupils will be asked to wait outside, where upon, each act will be called in one at a time to perform in front of a very knowledgeable, experienced and talented panel of judges, Patchway Community College very own assistant head of years!!!

Each year group, as part of Business and Enterprise, will help promote and organise the 'Patch Factor'. From advertising, organising the acts, collecting entry money, and selling tickets for the grand final, the pupils helping will learn a valuable insight into how businesses work.

Updates will be made on Patchway Community College website during the event.

So get rehearsing, stardom awaits!
