    Published 22/09/22

    This year we are trialing a new system to help with the retrieval of borrowed library resources. All parents / carers have recently received a letter outlining the changes, which are in line with the Robert Carre Trust becoming cashless. Our students are very good at returning their library books and textbooks on time, but inevitably some books do get forgotten and this directly impacts on our collections. The school library does not operate a fine system for overdue items as this can act as a barrier to successful and confident borrowing within an educational setting. However, for books that are lost, damaged beyond repair or long overdue (6 weeks or more without reasonable explanation) we will be placing a replacement charge on the Parentpay account. Alternatively, if the item remains unreturned parents may wish to replace it with a like for like copy. Students will receive both email and verbal reminders if they have items overdue, and I encourage any student to visit the library in person if they are unsure about any aspects of their library borrower account.

    Library opening hours   

    Monday - Thursday from 8.30am to 4.30pm

    Friday from 8.30am to 4pm

  • Growth Mindset

    Published 21/07/22

    Staff are invited to nominate students who have demonstrated a Growth Mindset in the past few weeks. This might have been in lessons, in clubs, in tutor time or simply around school. Please note we already award bi-annual subject badges and merits for good academic work, effort and improvement. These Growth Mindset nominations recognise those who show resilience (academic or otherwise); who aren’t afraid to get things wrong and learn from it; those who have a go, take themselves out of their comfort zone or show that even if a task is tough they will persevere.
