We are currently working to create a directory of experts for our upcoming Year 9 Passage Presentations and would appreciate your help!
Passage Presentation is an opportunity for students to reflect on their learning and demonstrate their readiness to move onto the next phase of their education – GCSE.
Students share their high quality work to a panel of experts and their family through an oral presentation, increasing their accountability and character development demonstrating the skills and knowledge they have gained in Key Stage 3.
As part of the presentation students provide insight into their future goals and aspirations and we would like to ensure an authentic expert for each of them at their presentation – this is where you come in!Â
We are seeking support from any members of our community to become an expert panelist at a Passage Presentation, to listen to the presentation, ask questions and support in directing pathways. In order for this to be a success we request help from members of the public who are able to share their own experiences and advice in order to advance our students to the next level of formal schooling.
If you feel this is something you are interested in, please use this link to sign up to the directory.Â
Presentations will take place week commencing 27th January 2025 for 3 weeks. You will receive an invite from the student you have been allocated nearer to the time.
Should you have any further questions, please contact a member of our Key Stage 3 Team:
Natalie Johnson- [email protected] (KS3 Lead)
Emma Watson- [email protected] (Phase Lead XPE 8/9)
Chris Morrison- [email protected] (Phase Lead XP 8/9)
We appreciate your support in advance.
For those children who would normally attend sensory circuit from 8.30am in the school hall, this is not on for the first week back due to SLC’s. Children must enter school at their classroom door please in the morning during the first week back. Sensory circuit will commence again from 8.30am on Monday 13th January.Â

Good morning
What a week! We’ve had an amazing time celebrating Christmas with the children! Here is a reminder of the plan for today:
Christmas Tuck Shop and Christmas pocket money toys (low stock left)
Mrs Fitzpatrick will be selling her Christmas sweet treats Thursday and Friday. She will go round classrooms each day for the children to purchase cones and Christmas bags. Prices are from £1 to £3.50
Also, depending on what is left following the Christmas Fayre she will also be selling the Christmas stocking fillers. Prices for these range from 50p upwards
Thank you once again for your continued support and engagement with everything we do for your children and our community. Have a wonderful Christmas!
