Weekly Update – 15 November 2024
Please see this letter for all parents regarding a vaping incident.
There are two INSET days this month on Thursday 28 and Friday 29 November when school will be closed for students. See our Term Dates page for all key dates.
The Department for Education is seeking the views from stakeholders regarding potential improvements to the curriculum and assessment systems in schools. While not a consultation they do want feedback on what works, what doesn’t and potential improvements. Please use this link if you would like to comment.
We will be welcoming back the Scholastic Book Fair from Monday 25 November. It will be with us for almost two weeks to ensure that there are still plenty of browsing and buying opportunities despite the two INSET days. The Fair will be open to students to come along and have a look/shop during break and lunchtimes, and both Years 7 and 8 will be visiting during English lessons. This could be the perfect opportunity for some early Christmas shopping, alongside encouraging reading for pleasure! Last year, our Calthorpe students and parents were fantastic at supporting the Fair, and we hope it will be as popular this year. Further information will be shared with both students and parents/ carers next week but if you wish, please use this link for further details now.
