Tuesday 20 October 2020

This week sees the end of the A-Level examinations.  A handful of Old Maidstonians from last year’s Year 13 have returned to sit their A-Level examinations as they were unable to sit them back in the summer.  It has been good to see them and find out how their lockdown has been.  We wish them well for results day in December.  After half term the GCSE examination period begins with students from the current Year 12 choosing to sit some.  Good luck to them.

Tomorrow we welcome back Year 11 from self-isolation.  Last week we had to send them home after we received confirmation of a positive Covid 19 test from one of them.  They all appreciated the situation they were in and have all immersed themselves in home learning once again.  It will be good to see them again.

On Thursday our virtual Year 6 Open Event goes live on our website.  Thursday would have been the day when we opened our doors up to the hundreds of Year 6 boys and their parents to see the school for our Year 6 Open Evening.  Sadly, due to the circumstances we are unable to do this, but hopefully the video presentations that we have put together will go some way in illustrating what life is like for each and every Maidstonian.  Even if you are not a parent of a Year 6 boy do take a look.
