Dear Families
On behalf of all the staff we wish you a very Happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year. We look forward to welcoming students back to school on Monday January 6th.
IT Support for KS3 Students
On Wednesdays, starting 15th January 2025, the Computer Science subject ambassadors have offered to help those students in KS3 who may need some help in working with the IT systems in the school. For example: using Slides, Docs, Sheets, Google Drive, etc...
The subject ambassadors who are all from the student body have agreed a rota on Wednesday lunchtimes in room 113, where they will be available from 13:00 PM until 13:25 PM.
They are looking forward to helping those in need.

Careers
Thank you to the 35 parents who have completed the careers feedback survey. It is really helpful to know what is working and what areas still require attention . If you would like to have your say but have not had time to complete the short form yet please click here . Please note if you are struggling to view the weekly careers newsletter
on a mobile device please download the free padlet app which converts it into a more readable format.
Work Experience - We have had 108 enquiries so far from Year 10 students so far, 16 have completed work experience and 7 waiting to start in the new year . If your young person has not yet spoken to Mrs Cook regarding this, please ask them to think about what they want to do over the holidays, using Morrisby (our school careers platform) to guide them if needed. You can find more information about work experience and other careers activities on the careers page of the school website here Placements usually take at least 3 weeks to set up from first enquiry so it is advisable not to leave it too late in the school year as students have mock exams in June.
