News and Updates
Update Following Continued Hot Weather
24th June 2026
Dear Families and Colleagues,
As you will have noted, the weather continues to be very warm. Our buildings, also, are continuing to heat up and retain this heat. As such and at the very least, we will remain into Friday with more relaxed dress for colleagues and PE kit for students.
I am currently in conversation with colleagues from our Trust group of schools and other local schools and will make clear tomorrow my decision around any alterations to the school day for Friday (tomorrow, Thursday, remains as planned with a lunchtime finish). My ambition here remains to keep the school open. School is the best place for children to be.
Please, if your children are intending to play around in the water in this weather, do take advice and avoid open water: https://rnli.org/news-and-media/2026/june/23/rnli-urges-families-to-share-lifesaving-water-safety-advice-in-extreme-heat#:~:text=To%20stay%20safe%20during%20this,the%20red%20and%20yellow%20flags.
With thanks and best wishes,
Steve
