Headteacher’s Message – Summer 2025

As we reach the end of another successful school year, I’d like to take this opportunity to wish all of our learners, families, and staff a very happy and restful summer break.

This term has been filled with celebrations of achievement and moments of real pride across our school community. From the many awards ceremonies recognising the outstanding effort, resilience, and talent of our young people, to the fantastic Summer Concert where learners once again amazed us with their creativity and confidence, there has been so much to reflect on and applaud. We also marked the end of an era for the Class of 2025 – a group of young people who have contributed so much to school life and whom we send off with our very best wishes for the future.

At the same time, we’ve welcomed our newest cohort of S1 learners during our transition events, and the energy and enthusiasm they’ve brought has been inspiring. The change of timetable has allowed everyone to start looking ahead, and we’ve already seen our learners engaging positively with new classes and fresh challenges.

Throughout this session, we’ve also been focused on listening, learning, and improving. Following our recent Collaborative Improvement Visit, we’ve been gathering feedback from across our school community to help shape our next steps. A key priority for next session will be a renewed focus on Learning and Teaching, and we’re grateful to all staff, pupils and families who have contributed to the consultation around our revised learning and teaching framework. Your insights are directly influencing the future direction of our school.

Finally, I’d like to thank everyone who supported our new Study Days this year and those who helped make the exam season as smooth and positive as possible for our senior learners. Whether learners have been preparing for assessments or adapting to new routines, their effort and attitude have been hugely commendable.

Enjoy the holidays – relax, unwind, make some memories with friends and family – and we look forward to welcoming all our learners back to school in August for another successful session.

Yours faithfully
Tim Woodcock
Head Teacher
