Oli Forster, Assistant Headteacher, said: “We will be in contact with parents on a regular basis as needs arise as Summer success relies on students, teacher and parents all pulling together. Our support systems have produced superb results over the last two years so any student that wishes to succeed simply has to choose to buy-in.”
