Dear Parents,

Over recent weeks, we have been busy putting together a ‘new look’ Senior Leadership Team for our Secondary School.

Following the appointment of Laura Anderson-Rice as Deputy Head of Secondary, we are pleased to announce the completion of the Secondary School Leadership Team. Amelia Norrie and John Warren have been appointed to the posts of Phase Leader (Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 3 respectively). Justin Hughes, IB Coordinator, completes the full Senior Leadership Team.

Amelia Norrie and John Warren join us from the Year Leader Team and we will now look at replacing the positions that have left. At the start of next year, we will be sharing our ‘key staff’ and who to contact should the need arise.

In lessons, Years 10 and 12 are currently receiving their feedback from exams taken last week. Year 7 have been busy making a video to welcome students from Year 6 who will visit us on the transition day that will take place Sunday, 10 June.

Have a great week!

Kind regards,

Tom Douch
Head of Secondary
