There is no need to sign up in advance for in school supported study. Pupils can attend any session for any subject and level they are sitting, even if it is not their class teacher delivering the session. The school canteen will be closed during the Easter holidays. If young people are planning on staying in school for both sessions, they should bring something to eat with them or money to buy something from the local community. There is also an option of quiet, individual study in the Library.

If you have any questions, please contact Mr Richardson- gw12richardsonjack@glow.sch.uk
