  • Sixth Form Transition Day

    Published 24/08/20

    We would like to invite all internal and external candidates to a 6th form transition day on Tuesday 1st September.

    This will just be an opportunity to prepare you for the year ahead and share some important information with you. This will start at 9am and take place in the Old Hall. We are expecting to finish at approximately 1:30 with a lunch break etc included however it may run a little over or finish a little earlier depending on how much time students need. You will need to bring a pen and a packed lunch / snacks and water as we won't be able to provide any food on the school site in line with government guidelines. We are also hoping to issue you with your timetable this day too. It will also be a chance for you to discuss any amendments you may want to make to your subject choices etc.

    We very much look forward to seeing you there. Thank you Miss McCallion and Miss Hopkins

  • Message for Year 12 and 13

    Published 18/08/20

    Good morning, 

    Following the education minister's decision to revert back to centre assessed grades we will reissue via email learners' results once the examination board (WJEC) send us a new results file. 

    We have not been given details of when this will arrive but rest assured our  examinations officer is constantly checking for this and will process it as soon as it comes in. 

    Finally, thank you to all parents and students who supported the demonstrations, petitions and wrote letters to the minister and politicians which will have helped greatly to reverse the ministers decision. 

    Mr Jarvis
