Principal’s Update – 21st April 2023
Principal's Blog
Dear Families I hope this update finds you and those closest to you in the very best of health. I write to you at the end of the first week of the summer term, hoping you have enjoyed some quality time off during the Easter break. For many of our students this is a busy and sometimes stressful time of the year as the examination period brings everything into a very fine focus with an intense few weeks ahead. In contrast to that the days are getting longer and, with the exception of today, the weather is turning a little brighter which always makes the journey to and from school less of a challenge for our students. We are hoping that a period of drier weather next week will make the ground somewhat firmer and allow us to open up the fields at break and lunch. We will let students know when this is the case.

We have had a new confirmed case of C19 in school this week and have communicated with those families affected by this to alert them of possible contacts. This case is not related to last week’s and does not appear to be a transmission within school.

We are nearing the end of another half term and the end of formal lessons for both Years 11 and 13, with 1 week remaining for them. The time does pass by quickly and we will be taking some time to reflect and celebrate with them next week alongside collating evidence for their grades. More on that below.
