Dear all
It has been another busy and productive week here. We have had a whole-school focus this week on punctuality, both to school and to lessons. Whilst the majority of students arrive on time and move to their next lessons promptly through the day, we know that punctuality can be improved further. It is a very important part of school life – if a student is even only 5 minutes late consistently to their lessons, over 7 years here that would amount to over two whole terms of missed learning.
Letters home and sanctions have taken place this week for students who are habitually late to school or to lessons. Please do contact your child's tutor or the Wellbeing Team if you wish to discuss this further. We appreciate your support in ensuring that learning can start punctually for all students.
Finally, a note on our upcoming production of Grease - a small number of extra tickets have been released (see message below). We look forward to seeing many families there. All performances have been risk assessed and are in line with the Welsh Government guidance.
All the very best to you and your families, and I hope you enjoy a restful weekend.
