We are delighted to announce that every one of Albyn School S1 pupils who entered the Young Writers’ competition called The Glitch has had their work selected for publication – an outstanding accomplishment!

The pupils were asked to answer the following brief in 100 words: A sudden shift, a twist of fate, and bam! Everything changes! Let imaginations run wild and create confident writers as your students consider the consequences of The Glitch. What happens when an ordinary day turns extraordinary? What are the effects on the world if one thing is changed forever? What thrilling or terrifying outcomes are unleashed if one mishap alters reality?

There will be a prize for the best story which will be announced next month.
