Dear Parents/Carers,
Thank you so much for helping your child to fill in their options form. We have had a fantastic response. If you haven’t already done so, would you mind ticking the parental consent box, which is near the bottom of the form? Here’s how to do it:
- Register for SIMS, using the invitation that was sent to you by email last night
- Once you’ve successfully registered, go to www.sims-options.co.uk and log in
- You will see your child’s options form
- Check that you are happy with the choices that have been made AND the priority order in which they appear
- If you are happy, tick the ‘parental consent’ box near the bottom of the form.
- Click ‘Save’ near the top left corner of the form
And that’s it!
If you have any problems with this, please don’t worry. We will contact you in other ways to get your consent.
Mr Langley

Dear all,
We want to say a huge well done for all of the effort and hard work put in by our learners this term. We are so very proud of them all. We understand this term has been difficult, but we thought it would be be nice to share some of the work and activities that we have seen from our learners.
Please do take a watch of the following updates before you start your half term holiday. We hope they make you smile as much as we did.
Mrs Ashton would like to send you a well done message
Please take a watch of our ‘Wellness Wednesday’ video – What a lovely afternoon had by all, and thank you for fully taking part and sharing it with us
All of our learners have done exceptionally well and we are incredibly proud, but here are a few that have sent in some outstanding pieces of work and have gained many extra positive points on Class Charts.
We really do wish you a safe and well rested half term, and we look forward to seeing you on Monday 22nd February.
Take care,
Kepier

Due to the PM’s announcement this week that schools will not return before 8th March 2021 the trial exams scheduled for after half term will be postponed and will take place at another time.
We will be in touch when dates for trial exams have been agreed. In the meantime it is vitally important that Year 10 and 11 learners continue to work hard on their remote learning.
Dear Parent/Carers and Learners,
We are now into our fourth week of remote Learning of 2021. We would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all of our parents and carers. We understand that whilst at home there is a great deal of support being offered to continue their learning.
This week we had a large number of learners completing and attempting their remote learning work set for last week and we want to say very well done for your perseverance in this new way of learning, and your engagement.
We understand that working from home is not always easy, but we really do appreciate your continued support and feedback, and we would like to take this opportunity to say thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs N. Ashton
Principal
