Would you believe us if we said that what you see on these pages is the same poem? In Hindi, it tightens; in English, it stretches out. That’s the magic of language. KABIR: WALKING WITH THE WORD, ed. Sanchit Toor, features six of Kabir’s poems translated into 11 languages.

Uppingham pupils took part in the Anthea Bell Translation Prize run by The Translation Exchange at The Queen's College University of Oxford - a great experience! A L5 pupil received a commendation for Italian level 1, a brilliant achievement as this is a new language for him.

An U6 pupil was recognised as the area winner for Russian ab initio – again an excellent achievement demonstrating sensitivity to language and culture, and significant language aptitude. Congratulations from #UppinghamLanguages
