Year 13 timetables
Following a review of our current provision and support provided to Year 13, we are pleased to inform you of changes to the structure of the timetable.
Year 11 Locker Clearance
Each year we put a system in place to ensure that all lockers are cleared out before the end of the academic year. To ensure this is completed as smoothly as possible, all students in Year 11 will need to clear their lockers before Friday 28th June 2019. Any items remaining after this date will be recycled, given to charity or disposed of.
Letter to Parents – Examination Day Procedures
I am writing to advise you and your child of the exam policies, key dates, and times to collect examination results, staff availability and the procedure to follow should you wish to make enquires after the release of examination results.
Letter to Parents – Exam Season
Dear Parents/Carers, The exam season is now underway, and we’ve been really pleased by students’ hard work both in the Academy and at home. I attach an overview schedule showing all exams and revision sessions in the coming weeks. Your child also has a copy of this to help them stay organised and plan ahead. For further clarity, Mr Slack will be printing individual student timetables every week.
Parent and Carer Letter – Ramadan and Exams
Some of our students will shortly be following the religious observance of Ramadan, which this year falls at the same time as the GCSE and A Level examination season. Students who are fasting may experience a range of possible benefits such as feeling closer to God, learning to exercise self-control, and strengthening community and family ties. However, we recognise that fasting often also results in tiredness, low energy, dehydration, reduced focus, memory and concentration issues, which may impact adversely on students during their exams.
Parent and Carer Letter – Behaviour Consultation
We are rightly proud of our reputation for good conduct and behaviour, a view supported by Ofsted and the parent and carer feedback on ParentView. However, not all children will get it right every time, and when students do get it wrong we aim to work with all parties to put things right. No matter how good something is we should always look to make it even better; with that in mind we would like your views on some changes we are considering.
Parent/Carer Letter – April 2019
I would like to thank our students and staff for their fantastic commitment, teamwork and energy. I wish to thank the parents, carers and members of the community for the outstanding support provided to the Academy.
Year 11 – Passport to the Prom
We are really proud of all the hard work that our Year 11 students are putting in to their studies. Today we are launching a ‘Passport to the Prom’, which is designed to recognise and reward this ongoing commitment to excellence.

I would like to invite parents and carers of students in Years 11 and 13 to a Parents’ Consultation Evening on Thursday 28th March 2019.
Parents’ Consultation Evening – Year 8
