Early finish for students

On Thursday, the academy will close to students after lunch at 1.45pm. 

Students helping out at Open Evening will also need to leave school at 1.45pm, returning at 3.30pm. Student helpers have been sent a separate letter.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.


Home learning

This week we have set home learning for Year 10 and 11 students on Sparx Maths. They have until Monday 5th October to complete it.

Don't forget to check the home learning timetable for your child.


Year 11 mocks

We recently wrote to all parents and carers of Year 11 students about the upcoming mock exams – a copy of the letter is on our website.

Further information, including the exams timetable, can be found here.
