Welcome
Dear Parent / Carer,
I trust you are making the most of our new look website. If you have any suggestions as to content we would be pleased to hear from you. I hope you have had the opportunity to look at the 100th edition of our newsletter which has a synopsis of progress at St Ives School over the life of the publication.
We are continuing to develop initiatives both within and outside of school that we believe will serve the community of learners well. A particular initiative about to be launched is called 'Give it a go!'. This is speciifcally aimed at students who are in care or in the receipt of free school meals. This Government funded scheme will encourage wide participation in activities outside of school where money might have been an issue. If your child is eligible you will be hearing from us.
Year 11 recently received their mock examination grades. Students, if they didn't know before, now clearly know what they have to do to achieve their goals!! The extra classes for year 11 are underway. Please encourage your son or daughter to take part.
We have a short break from exams for a few weeks and with a bit of luck there will be no more snow to disrupt learning this term.
As ever, please contact our Progress Leaders Duncan Smith (Y7,8,9) or Mark Fletcher (Y10,11) if you have a broad acedemic concern or the individual subject teacher if you have a specific question.
Regards
David Harris
Headteacher
