Dear families,
Another busy week.
Thank you to those families who attended the Year 11 Graduation ceremony. It was a wonderful morning and so many students graduated with full honours.
Years 10 and 12 have now completed their end of term exams and Year 9 have now received their Option letters.
The love of reading
At Thomas Gainsborough we are constantly looking to encourage our students to read more. One of our students recently competed, very successfully, in a public speaking competition and with his permission I thought you would like listen to why he thinks reading is so important.

Changes to our Behaviour Policy
During this academic year some families have asked for clarification regarding some aspects of our behaviour policy. We have updated our policy to be more explicit in key areas and we have also altered our expectations concerning the use of mobile phones in light of recent government recommendations. We have not banned phones unlike many schools.
Students will be having assemblies next week to inform them, and you can view a copy from our policies page at tgschool.net/policies and the Behaviour policy link direct.
