Dear Parents and Carers,
We wrote to you recently to inform you of some price increases made by our catering provider, Taylor Shaw. The new price list can be found on our website at https://www.manchester.coopacademies.co.uk/lunches
The academy will be closing early for all students on Thursday 5 February 2026, to allow us to host our Year 9 Progress and Option Evening.
Year 9 Progress and Options Evening is a chance for you to speak with your child’s teachers about how they are performing across all subjects, ahead of making their final options choices.
You will also be given a copy of your child’s latest academic progress report.
We currently have two vacancies for a member of our parent and carer community to join the Academy Community Council (ACC) at Co-op Academy Manchester.
Key dates for the next round of Year 11 mock examinations.
We promote personal wellbeing and development through our personal, social, health and economics (PSHE) programme. Relationships and sex education (RSE) is interlinked within the same curriculum and follows Government guidance. PSHE is delivered as a timetabled subject within Key Stage 3 (Years 7 to 9), and within dedicated PSHE time during tutor time in Key Stage 4 (Years 10 and 11).
Dear Parents/Carers
Thank you, once again, for your support of all the changes we have made at the Academy this academic year. These changes have made a really positive difference for students.
To further support this, we are now looking to consult with you on some proposed changes to the school day and holiday pattern for September 2026/27 onwards. Please discuss these changes as a family, at home, and let us know if you have any feedback.
End of term letter - December 2025
