Re: Strike Day: 2nd March 2023

We are writing to inform you of the arrangements for Thursday 2^nd March 2023.

As you are aware, there is an Industrial Teacher strike on Thursday 2^nd March across London.

Due to significantly reduced staffing, we will be running a limited programme for invited students only. These students will receive a separate message inviting them in with details of their arrival and departure time.

Therefore, the school will be closed to all students, unless you have received a separate message inviting your young person in.  

Hub students

The school day will start at 9.00am for those invited into the hub, finishing by 1.50pm.

Year 11s

We are determined to ensure there are minimal disruptions to the Year 11 Mock examinations, therefore ALL YEAR 11 students, will be expected to attend school; being on site at the normal time of 8:25am in order to sit their Maths Pre-public exams in the morning.

If your child also studies French or has been invited to attend a 6^th form face to face interview, he will remain on site until the afternoon.

Year 13s

The invited year 13s will be onsite from 9am to 1pm

We will be providing lunch and/or break for students invited in, but normal payment arrangements will apply.

Additionally, any student not invited in for the above activities who is eligible for free school meals will be able to attend the school from 11.45am to 12.45pm to collect a take-away lunch. 

Please look out for messages soon from us to check whether your son/daughter has been invited in.

Mr Lawrence

Head of School
