As you may be aware, the new statuary framework for RSHE is now in place across all schools and academies in England. In order to support your understanding of what is delivered in each Year Group, I am pleased to be able to invite you to our optional information evening on Monday 8^th November 2021.(Read more…)

We have been notified by Vaccination UK that owing to the high uptake of the flu immunisation, not all students were able to be seen today. Therefore, they will return to the Academy on Thursday 6th January to administer the immunisation to the remaining students. If you have any questions about this or any of the immunisation programmes, please contact Vaccination UK directly here. (Read more…)

We strongly encourage all of our students to continue regular COVID-19 testing, especially before returning to the Academy from the half-term break.

Please see Nadhim Zahawi’s tweet of encouragement here.(Read more…)

We look forward to welcoming students back to the Academy, and hope that they’ve had a well-deserved, restful break. As you’ll be aware, we follow a mixed-middle approach rather than using ability sets at KS3. This means that students are instead grouped with peers who have similar strengths and areas for development, allowing our staff to better tailor learning to each child’s needs. (Read more…)

Last month we shared details of the flu immunisation offered for free to all students. Students for whom a completed consent form has been returned will receive their immunisation on Tuesday 2nd November (a later catch-up date will be offered if the immunisation team are unable to process all students). If you have any questions about this process or the immunisation, please contact Vaccination UK directly here.

We have yet to receive the date for in-Academy COVID-19 vaccinations, full details of this process and the eConsent form have been shared here.

The Tovni Lacer brand of Kickers shoes, with the trainer-style lace are not allowed to be worn as Business Dress in the Academy.
