Weโve had a wonderful week here at school, made even better by the continued stretch of lovely weatherโalways a welcome boost for both students and staff!
...
This week marked an important milestone for our Year 11 students, as their GCSE exams have officially begun. Weโve been incredibly impressed by their focus, maturity, and the calm determination theyโve shown during this crucial time. We wish them all the best as they continue through the exam seasonโyour hard work is already making us proud.
We also had a heartfelt and memorable moment as we celebrated our Year 13 students in their Leaversโ Assembly. It was an emotional but joyous occasion. We are so proud of everything this cohort has achieved, and while weโre sad to see them go, weโre excited for the bright futures ahead of them. Whether theyโre heading off to university, apprenticeships, or the world of work, we know theyโll continue to shine.

We have been working hard on embedding our school values with both students and staff. Now, weโd love to hear from you, our parent community!

A separate message has been sent home via Arbor for families to sign up for this session, which will take place on Wednesday 14th May 2025.
We look forward to seeing many of you there and hearing your thoughts!

As Deaf Awareness Week comes to a close, we want to take a moment to recognise its importance and reflect on this yearโs theme, "Beyond Silence." The week is a time to raise awareness and promote understanding of the Deaf community and the importance of inclusion.
We are proud to have Deaf individuals as part of our school community and remain committed to ensuring that our school is a welcoming and supportive place for everyone.
Many of our students know Toby, our amazing Hearing Dog, who supports his dad, Mr Lucas. Toby is a wonderful reminder of the different ways people navigate the world and the power of support, understanding, and inclusion.
Letโs continue to learn, listen, and move beyond silence โ together.

Thank you, as always, for your ongoing support. Wishing everyone a restful and sunny weekend!
