Information for current parents
Academy Day
From THURSDAY 10th September, our students will revert to their new arrival and finish times. Again, these start and finish times are in place so that we are not mixing our year group bubbles. There is a 15-minute gap between the start and finish times to allow students to safely leave the premises. Students should not wait on site for friends in other year groups.

Attendance
Attendance in academy is monitored and causes for concern are discussed with the school attendance improvement adviser on a weekly basis. Academies will always try to resolve attendance issues initially with young people and/or their parents, however there are occasions when more intensive work is requested and we will work very closely as an academy to improve overall attendance and future life chances for our academy community.
Exam Preparation Support
We have launched some new parent & student leaflets to support young people to revise and study more effectively. Please could you take some time to go through these with your child and to try out some of our top tips.
