In preparation for their option choices, all Year 9 students are participating in an options guidance programme and should soon be in a position to make informed choices after further discussions with their parents. As part of this programme we would like to invite Year 9 students and their parents/carers to a Year 9 Options Information Evening on Thursday 5th March 2015.
We break up on Friday 13th February 2015 for a one week holiday. This holiday is a good opportunity — especially for students in Years 10, 11, 12 and 13, to take stock and catch up on any work they might have missed, or to do some important revision for their upcoming exams.
A Year 7 Parent's Evening will take place on Thursday 12th February 2015 from 4.30 - 7.00 p.m.
Year 10 students will be sitting a one hour Chemistry mock examination on Tuesday 24th February 2015 (during Science lessons Period 1 and 2 depending on Band).
We would like to take this opportunity of wishing all our parents, students and friends a very happy and prosperous new year.
Welcome back to a new year and the start of Term 3. This is always a busy term and one which will go very quickly for students in Years 11, 12 and 13 as they prepare for their examinations later in the year. We hope they will make the most of the weeks ahead of them to consolidate the work they have already done and prepare thoroughly for what is to come.
We break up for our Christmas holidays on Friday 19th December 2014. We would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. As has become tradition now, we will be putting on entertainment for the students on the last day of term. This will slightly change the timings of the day.
The next Parent Forum takes place on Tuesday 2nd December 2014 at 5.30 p.m. We would like to invite parents/carers who would be interested to share their points of view and discuss a broad range of matters concerning the education of the students at Kingswood, thereby helping us to make the Academy the best it can possibly be.
Please would last year's Year 11 students who studied Textiles with Miss Wray or Mrs Mandziuk come to the Academy to collect your work.
