As we prepare for the next academic year, we would like to share our return-to-school arrangements.

All pupils will return to school on Wednesday 2nd September and should access the school grounds via the pupil entrance on Bridge Cross Road only.

We will be having a staggered start to ensure a smooth transition:

• Our new Year 7 pupils are expected to arrive by 8:30am. Timetables and phone pouches will be issued, uniform checks explained, and the morning will include icebreaker activities, a tour of the school, and an assembly.

• Year 11 students are also expected to arrive by 8:30am. They should go straight to their Personal Development rooms.

• Students in Years 8, 9 and 10 are expected to arrive at 9:30am. They should proceed to their Personal Development room to receive their timetable, phone pouch and attend an assembly.

• Year 12 pupils are expected to arrive for 8:30am and Year 13 pupils are expected to arrive for 10:00am. Pupils should report to the Sixth Form study room upon their arrival.

Breaktime will follow as normal, with the usual lessons and school structure resuming thereafter.

As we prepare for the forthcoming academic year, we also wish to express our appreciation for your continued support in upholding the uniform standards and expectations of our students. Please click here to view a letter regarding uniform expectations, shared with parents/carers in July 2026. Thank you in anticipation of your continued support.

We hope our families continue to have a wonderful summer break and we look forward to starting the new school year soon!
