IMPORTANT DATES 2017-18

I have attached below a link to the usual summary of our Important Dates for this session, which I hope will be of use to all parents. We will also add a quick link at the left side of the website that will take you straight to it.

I have also attached a link to another sheet which summarises some of the additional sessions we are offering to support parents in helping their young people. This includes our usual information sessions regarding pathways (options) at key stages. It also includes a number of other sessions which we hope parents will find to be useful.

This information will also be sent out as a paper copy via schoolbag-mail over the next few days.
