We’re pleased to share details of upcoming free online workshops delivered by the Dyslexia Outreach team. These sessions are open to all parents and carers—no diagnosis of dyslexia is required to attend and indeed could be beneficial to more parents and students.

Staff are invited to nominate students who have demonstrated a Growth Mindset in the past few weeks. This might have been in lessons, in clubs, tutor time or simply around school. Please note we already award bi-annual subject badges and merits for good academic work, effort and improvement. These Growth Mindset nominations recognise those who show resilience (academic or otherwise); who aren’t afraid to get things wrong and learn from it; those who have a go, take themselves out of their comfort zone or show that even if a task is tough, they will persevere.

Interact Club has been busy again!

Our Year 7 members organised a collection for the Sleaford Food Larder this week and we were pleased to send off a car boot full of tins, cereals, pasta, milk and other useful items. A particular mention should go to 9HB and their form captain Hattie who organised a whole food shop!

Here is the first in a series of articles written by our KSHS Young Journalist Team with some editorial support from the Y12 A level language prefects.

The topic for each article is selected by the students themselves.
