A script for a Doctor Who mini-episode was written by students of the school as part of a Doctor Who competition (Script to Screen). Some children won the competition and had it shown on Doctor Who Confidential. The children are now the youngest people to have written a Doctor Who episode.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
