Things to celebrate
- It was lovely to see so many parents and carers at our Y7 Parents’ Evening on Thursday with brilliant discussions had about students’ learning and progress.
- We would like to congratulate our Year 11 students for their attendance at the many revision classes held during the Easter Holiday.
- We are thrilled to announce that Freddie’s Brass Band had a very exciting Easter holiday experiencing a day filming on set as part of the new Take That movie ‘Greatest Days’. They will be starring in the film which will be released next year… and perhaps appearing on the red carpet at the premiere.
- Students enjoyed a trip to see the legendary ‘Les Miserables’ performed in Manchester and starring our very own ex-student, Adam Boardman.

Homework and Self-directed study
This week, we’d like to share another of our homework strands: ‘Pod it’.
GCSEPod- An extensive study support platform which provides students with access to additional GCSE content to their learning including film clips, assessment materials linked to specific subjects and topics. The pods are linked to most subjects and key topics and is proving invaluable to students as they revise. This platform is shared with all of our KS4 students but can also be used lower down the school for some subject areas and to consolidate learning.
For further information on how to access GCSEPod please visit our website.
Homework Club
Please remind your child that homework club is available to all students Monday-Thursday where they can complete work in a quiet environment with staff on hand to support them.
Personal Development
Over the next few weeks as part of our work on developing character, we will be focusing on positivity and the power of positive thinking, helping students to consider how they can be even more effective learners with increased self-belief and confidence. Key information on ways to feel more positive is included below.

Message from the Headteacher
I hope you and your families have had a pleasant Easter break and students are ready for their final term of the school year. Thank you for your support following my letter to parents regarding the two TikTok accounts and hurtful content contained within. Please monitor your child’s usage and help us to maintain the high standards of which we are very proud. The letter about this has been emailed out to all parents and carers and we would be grateful of you reading it in full.
Mr Davies.
