Congratulations to all our Year 11 students who have completed the first week of their GCSEs. They are a credit to themselves and a reflection of the ongoing support they receive at home, from school staff and our invigilation team.

Next week sees the start of the first A-Levels for Year 13 and in-school exams for Year 7 to 10.

Parking and Driving around school

Parking on and around the school site, when dropping off or collecting students, remains a health and safety concern affecting not only our students, but also numerous other members of the local community.

Please park and drive considerately in the area and with due regard for the safety of other drivers and pedestrians. There are yellow lines and zig-zag lines identifying areas where vehicles should not park or drop off passengers.

There are numerous car parks located within 5 minutes of the school site so please use these if possible. Your support in this matter is much appreciated.
