In 2024 a former Myton student, Aaliyah Godfrey, lost her battle with Ewing's Sarcoma. She was 20 years old. https://aaliyahgodfrey.muchloved.com/

To honour her memory, Myton School has made Sarcoma UK its charity of the year for 2025/26.

Throughout the year, the school will be holding a number of fundraising events. On top of this there will also be a year-long event. I will have my head shaved bald on Monday 29 September. I won't be allowed to cut it until the date of the Year 13 Leavers Ball (3 July 2026). At this point, if enough money has been raised, the Sixth Formers are free to cut and style my hair for the ball as they see fit. Also, at every charity event between now and July, Sixth Formers can colour and style my hair in appropriate colours. Hitting monetary targets will unlock more styles and colours to be unleashed on me.
