This week we continue to welcome more
Year 10 and Year 12 students back into school. Yesterday we delivered the
last of the Year 12 UCAS sessions as well as running a drama workshop for Year
10. We are now moving to more subject specific sessions for Year 12 as
well as continuing to run sessions for Year 10 students studying more practical
subjects. It has been so good seeing the students again, and hearing more
young voices about the place.
Much of the focus now is looking towards
September and putting a plan together for the new academic year. We have
established a set of principles we wish to follow, which include ensuring we
welcome the students back in a phased and safe manner as well as preparing the
students for a blended style of learning to enable them to work at school and from
home. Details of this plan will be
published soon.
We now have some very good news about
our all-weather pitch project. All of
the planning conditions have been signed off so we now have the green light to
start. It has been a long journey, but
hopefully we can start very shortly. The
project will take about 20 weeks and will hopefully be ready by November.
