Positive Futures Adviser

Our positive futures adviser is Lily Morris.

Dear Parents/Carers

You are now into your second week on Home Schooling congratulations on getting this far. I hope it has not been too stressful having children home 24/7 and only being allowed out once a day.

Teaching staff are all working hard at putting together packs which you will receive in the post with work for after the Easter holidays.

I do hope you are all able to access the resources.

I am around in school so if you are struggling with anything or just need an ear to listen please do contact me. My number is 07796288696 I am here to support you and your family.

You may find the following resources useful:
