ANNOUNCING OUR FIRST EVER TRUST-WIDE SPORTS DAY 2025!
We are thrilled to announce a landmark moment in our trust’s calendar — the very first Trust-Wide Sports Day, bringing together more than 3,000 pupils from across Matrix schools.
Venue: The iconic Alexander Stadium, Birmingham – home of the 2022 Commonwealth Games
Date: Wednesday, 9th July 2025
This incredible event will be a full day of competition, celebration, and community spirit. As part of our Healthy Competitions Initiative, the day will showcase the power of sport in promoting teamwork, resilience, and ambition. Schools have now completed their in-school heats and successful participants will receive letters to notify them of their involvement as a participant. Additionally, this event provides a unique opportunity for pupils to showcase their talents in front of athletics club scouts, potentially opening doors for future athletic opportunities.
What to Expect:
Parents and carers of participants are warmly invited to attend and spectate this exciting event! With over 2,000 spectators expected, the day promises an electric atmosphere — and your support will make all the difference to our pupils. A full schedule of events is below so you can plan when to attend to cheer on your child. Spectators will be seated in the East Stand. Tickets are available via Eventbrite at £3 per person. All proceeds will be donated to Birmingham Children’s Hospital, our Trust charity for the year.
So you can plan when you would like to arrive and watch a particular event - a schedule of events will be confirmed on the trust website HERE closer to the event. Follow us on social media for the latest timings.

This is more than just a sports day — it’s a celebration of talent, teamwork, and trust unity. Whether you’re competing, performing, or cheering from the stands, get ready to be part of something unforgettable.
Let the countdown begin.
Year 7 pupils have learnt all about careers in the tv, film and digital media industry, thanks to the engaging assembly and workshops ran by 4schools, in affiliation with channel 4. The workshop involved pitching ideas for a new hit series to be broadcast by channel 4. We’ve had lots of pupils now say that they want to work in this industry, who wouldn’t have considered this career path previously!
