WEEKLY BULLETIN Dear Parents/Carers,
Exam Support
It has been fantastic to see the wonderful co-operation of all the students as we have tried out a new model for the school day. We have been working hard to improve standards and one of the forms of that is preparation, which comes in many forms including:
Maintaining high attendance in school Being on time to school and lessons and having the correct equipment Adhering to the uniform standards
Over the upcoming bulletins, We will be exploring some of the top 10 tips to help you support your child through their exams. This initiative is aimed to help your child control different aspects of their life to help them to perform at their very best when it comes to exam time. It will also allow them to focus, set themselves a plan and work towards being prepared in the best possible way. If you require any additional information, please see your child’s form tutor.
Your co-operation in supporting the above areas is vital. As we approach half term, many students will be taking part in assessments, or an important sports fixture or the exciting opportunity of a place in the school show, preparation becomes a theme that shines through. Mr Jon Arnold – Headteacher
Free Football Free sports sessions from 11th October – all students welcome.

Shrewsbury School We have been privileged to be able to work alongside some colleagues at Shrewsbury School since the start of the term. Twenty of our students have attended additional Maths sessions to help prepare for their examinations. In addition to this, we have been delighted with the support that many of our students have had with their fitness as part of the “Dedicated Athlete Programme.”
