Headteacher Communication

Friday 11th April 2025
Dear Parents/Carers,
We’ve reached the end of a very long and very busy term. Well done to our students who have worked hard and made progress with their learning throughout the last 13 weeks and to all of our students who have achieved sporting and acting successes too. We wish everybody a safe and enjoyable Easter break and then look forward to seeing all students when we return to school on Monday 28th April.
Examination Year Groups
The external exams for our examination year groups (Years 10 - 13) will start a week after the Easter break. Please could you encourage your child to make the most of the Easter holidays and revise in preparation for these exams. There is a comprehensive revision page to support them on our website. We want all our students to achieve their potential: effective revision and preparation is key to them succeeding.
KS3 and Year 10 Internal Exams
Shortly after Easter we will be sending home exam timetables for students in Years 7 - 10. Some of these exams are sat in classrooms, others in the exam hall, to prepare students for external exams in the future. We expect students in these younger years to also start revising for their summer exams (these are just seven weeks away after all). More information will be shared when we return.
Summer Uniform
Many thanks for the positive response we have had regarding the letter we sent home on Tuesday regarding a temporary amendment to our school uniform policy. If you do have any issues purchasing uniform items, please contact us and we can provide support.
And finally…
Have a lovely Easter break with your families and thank you for your continued support this year.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs A Newton & Miss S Hook
