Dear Parents

 

Today, we are providing summer Work Packs in each subject for students to complete over the summer holiday. These are set out in a weekly format, so students can easily see what tasks they need to complete in a given week. We are also providing a simple Summer Checklist, so parents and students can tick off each subject, as they complete the assignments weekly.

 

Teachers have worked hard to make these assignments as engaging as possible with use of video clips and range of really interesting resources. Maintaining good and regular study habits over the summer holiday will really help students when they resume in September. There will of course still be plenty of time for them to enjoy themselves with their families.

 

Please see our documents:   Accessing summer resources       Summer Checklist

 

When students return we will acknowledge and celebrate all the work they have undertaken over the summer holiday.

 

We have distributed 6 Lateral Flow Tests to each student during period 6 for use over the holiday. We very much hope students will take two tests weekly as per the schedule below and remind you that these are still available free in most pharmacies and many supermarkets.

It is also our intention to continue Lateral Flow Testing of students once weekly as per our regular schedule, at least until the end of the autumn term.

 

Year Group	In school test	At home test
Years 13 & 11	Monday AM	Wednesday Evening
Years 12 & 10	Tuesday AM	Thursday Evening
Year 9	Wednesday AM	Saturday Evening
Year 8	Thursday AM	Sunday Evening
Year 7	Friday AM	Tuesday Evening

 

Please also remember you can order Lateral Flow Test Kits for you and all your family.

Thank you for your support of your daughters and sons and of course of us. This Friday July 16^th, is the last day of term. We will run a normal school day and finish at 3pm.

Yours sincerely
