Dear Parent/Carer
It has been a pleasure to welcome students back for such a sunny and positive start to the term.
As exams draw closer, we have been hugely impressed by the focus, resilience and work ethic shown by our Year 11 and Year 13 students, we know that the Easter holidays were a combination of sleep and revision for many of them and we wish them every success in the weeks ahead. Finally, good luck to all our Modern Foreign Language students who have forthcoming speaking assessments – we know how hard they have been preparing and are confident they will do themselves proud.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support as parents– particularly for working with us so constructively as we reassert our tight mobile phone expectations. We appreciate parents’ understanding and engagement in this area and know many of you will be aware of the ongoing national debate around mobile phones in schools. We will be sharing some updated guidance later this year, ahead of September, to keep everyone clearly informed.
Finally, we would like to wish the very best of luck to Jemima in Year 8, who is representing herself and the school in the national final of the Rotary Young Chef competition this weekend – a fantastic achievement of which we are extremely proud!
Mrs J Smith
Headteacher
