Overview

Dear parent / guardian,

I am delighted to be able to include an update on the achievements from students in each house over

the last half-term, many of whom won awards in the recent commendation event at the end of last term.

The following pages celebrate the award winners in relation to attendance, attitude and effort in the

classroom and student contribution to the All Saints’ Way. I am sure you will join us in congratulating

the students for their excellent efforts in the previous half-term and we hope to see many more

students winning awards in the upcoming commendation events at the end of July.

I would like to take this opportunity to raise a few issues that currently need addressing by the school

and ask for your support in helping to prevent any forthcoming problems. I would like to draw your

attention to the following school expectations -:

All students must be punctual and should be on-site by 8.55am at the latest. This is to enable

their learning to begin promptly at 9am and is excellent preparation for future work life. Parents/

carers who are bringing their child into school by car should allow sufficient journey time for

potential delays, such as traffic problems. Students may be dropped on-site from 7.50am on-

wards, allowing plenty of time for younger siblings to then be taken to their nursery/school.

The canteen is available for students to sit and enjoy time with their friends, for them to do

homework or quietly read. Any students arriving late to lessons are sanctioned and repeat

offenders are monitored closely and the severity of their sanctions increased. Punctuality and

attendance are continuing to improve and we want to thank our dedicated students, supportive

parents/carers and hard-working staff for this.

Whilst the vast majority of our students behave impeccably both inside and outside the classroom,

in the event of poor student behaviour or any other action that contravenes the All Saints’ Way, the

school reserves the right to give after school detentions with a 24-hour notice period. If a student

is given an after-school detention they will be provided with a letter to notify parents/guardians of

the sanction and you will also be sent an e-mail through the school Insight system. By sending

your child to the school you are in essence agreeing to support the school detention policy,

therefore no student is exempt from sitting after school detentions. If a student does not attend

an after-school detention, this will be treated as defiance and further sanctions will follow.

Mobile phones and I-watches remain banned from the school site between 9.00am and 3.35pm.

Students must hand their phones in at reception before school starts if they bring them into

school. Any student found in possession of a mobile phone or smart device during the school day

will have them confiscated for 5 school days as per school policy. The school has no liability over

any possessions lost by students on the school site.

The school has a very clear policy on uniform outlined on the school website and in organisers.

Any student wearing incorrect uniform will be isolated at break and lunchtime and students

wearing make-up that is excessive will be asked to remove it as we want the students to have a

professional demeanour.

The school reserves the right to confiscate any banned items that are brought on to site for

example cans of fizzy or energy drink, aerosol deodorant sprays or anything that students intend

to sell on (e.g. sweets)

I trust that the school has your full support in the areas addressed. I hope you enjoy reading about

the fantastic successes achieved by so many of our students during the last school term and

hope to see many more different students celebrated in the next newsletter.

Yours Faithfully,

Mr C Hutchinson (Assistant Head – Care, Guidance and Support)

Fortitudo Achievements

We have had a very busy half term in Fortitudo with students representing

our house amazingly in many different ways. We had a wonderful group of

year 7 students who dressed as their favourite characters for World Book

Day and our House Captains have worked hard to raise funds for our house

charity. Our year 10s had very successful mock interviews at the Civic

Centre in Mansfield and a small group of year 10s visited the Maun View

care home to learn about dementia and spend time with the residents. Staff in fortitude have

been working hard too, dressing up for Sport Relief and participating in the Staff

Pantomime – Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
