Good headlines for once

Senior leadership
As her students settle into the new year, Marion Gibbs is reminded of the many positive things that our young people dedicate themselves too – and is equally cheered when some government announcements continue the theme of positivity.

It has been a really positive start to term. For most staff, school becomes a much more cheerful and interesting place once the students are back and the buildings are again filled with so many lively and stimulating young people. This is so much more engaging than sitting in one’s office, trying vainly to clear up paper, updating documentation for an imminent inspection and answering a backlog of emails!

Many of our students are bursting with enthusiasm and very keen to get involved in making a difference for others. Before the October half-term break, a large proportion will have participated in a Water Aid week, where they are sponsored to drink only water for a week, raising money for water projects in the developing world.
