It's official we are OUTSTANDING! Make yourself a cup of tea, get some biscuits suitable for dunking and feast your eyes on our shiny new Ofsted report! I am sure you will agree that it is a delightful read and captures the incredible school community in which we are all fortunate to belong.
Castle Hill Ofsted Report July 2023
Post 16 Careers Event
We are holding a Post 16 event on the 27th September for year 11 pupils and their families and a Post 18 event for year 13 and 14 pupils and their families on the 4th October. The events start at 3.15pm.
There will be representatives from a range of local colleges and training providers, together with Julie Jones, head of our sixth form, who will all deliver a presentation and will then be available to chat with and assist with applications. The sixth form area will also be open for a chance to look around.
Lesley Millican our EHCP Coordinator and Michael Henshall-Watson our Careers Advisor will also be present to offer any advice and support.
Parking and Traffic Concerns
Sadly, I have received a complaint regarding the dangerous driving of a parent/carer whilst leaving the site from drop-off on Monday. In addition to this, there was another dangerous incident this morning. For the safety of everyone in our community, please follow the safety directions and advice given by our staff. Also, please if your child is mobile, consider using the overflow carpark to reduce the congestion on the main school concourse. I really appreciate your support with this matter.
