Staff MA Programme
A group of staff have begun an MA programme this week after school. This is an example of
the extended learning taking place at all levels to enhance the learning of our young people
and their experience in school.
Tracking Reports
Termly tracking reports have been compiled this week for reporting to parents the progress
being made by students in all of their subjects against their targets. This data will be used as
the basis for discussion on the Academic Tutorial Day on March 12th to which parents are
invited to attend. Times for meeting will be arranged by your daughter/son's form tutor.
A special assembly presentation took place for years 8 & 10 on Tuesday highlighting the
consequences of smoking. The presentation was made by Professor Hutchison from a
leading London University.
Every Monday there is a student bulletin shown to them during tutor time about the events of
the week together with reminders.
Sports Update
Year 7 Football match v HCC on Tuesday was drawn 1-1.
Years 7, 8 & 9 girls had rugby training on Monday with a coach from Harlequins RFC.
Netball results v Orleans Park: unfortunately all four teams lost but put up gallant displays!
The annual Indoor rowing competition took place on Friday – results to follow.
Staff Appointments in PACE & Science
We had interviews for vacancies in Mathematics, Science and PACE this week. Unfortunately
we were unable to appoint a Mathematician, but have appointed four very strong staff; two for
Science and two for PACE.
Mr Pollard arranged Year 8 target group meeting with parents and mentors on Tuesday in an
attempt to support and encourage them with their learning. Thank you to those parents who
attended and who support this initiative.
Outstanding C5s
There are some students with outstanding C5s. I would be grateful if parents would check
diaries regularly to see whether C5 sanctions have been given. Please ensure also that
diaries are in good condition, graffiti free, contain homework details and signed weekly. In
addition we have a small number of students whose uniform is not acceptable, please ensure
that they leave home dressed appropriately. Thank you for your support.
Student Equipment
Some students are not as organised as others in terms of being in possession of the correct
equipment. Please check what your son/daughter has in terms of equipment against what is
expected. Ms McGrail does run a stationary club which can help with re-stocking the right
equipment. She can be contacted on vmcgrail@christs.richmond.sch.uk Many thanks.
