Dear Parent/Carer,
Arrangements for September 2024
I hope you have enjoyed a restful summer break.
A reminder that students will be returning to school as follows:
Morning Arrangements
Students are to line up every morning promptly at 8.20am at the appropriate location where they will be greeted by their Form Tutor and accompanied into the building:
Year Group |
Location |
Year 7 |
Playground by the canteen |
Year 8 |
Paved area through the double gates |
Year 9 |
MUGA (front of school) |
Year 10 |
MUGA (front of school) |
Year 11 |
On the Astroturf |
Sixth Form |
Sixth Form centre |
Students will be allocated a locker in the new term upon receipt of a deposit of £10.00. Payments can be made via our online payment system, ParentPay. Login details will be sent to you in due course. Cash payments cannot be accepted.
General Information
Uniform
All students are expected to adhere to the school’s Uniform Policy; students who are not wearing appropriate uniform may be sanctioned. Here is a reminder of our expectations, along with a copy of our Uniform Policy:
* Year 7 – yellow, Year 8 – blue, Year 9 – green, Year 10 – purple, Year 11 – red
From September, students will also be required to have “The Grace 5” with them throughout the school day which is a: bag, pencil case, reading book, water bottle and student planner. Form tutors will check students have these items with them during morning line-ups and should students not have the correct equipment they will be sanctioned.
Punctuality and Attendance
From September, Government legislation is changing so that any student arriving late to school (after 8.50am) will be given a U code, meaning those students will be marked as absent for 50% of their school day. This will therefore have a significant impact on their overall attendance figure. A reminder that students should have at least 97% attendance throughout the academic year. Students whose attendance falls below this threshold will be subject to intervention from the Local Authority and could also incur fines.
Key Dates
We would also like to share some key dates for September with you:
We are excited for the academic year ahead and for our students to return to an Academy where they can continue to flourish and develop, embodying our Grace values of Limitless Potential, Intentional Excellence, Genuine Integrity, Mutual Respect and Amazing Grace as we move forwards in our “Grace Way”.
May I also take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs N Whiles
Principal

Dear Parent/Carer,
Year 11 and Year 13 Exam Briefing Timetable
Please use the link below to connect to the timetable for both Year 11 and Year 13 students for the exam period commencing on Monday 6th May. This timetable contains details of individual exams, scheduled revision sessions and pre-examination briefings.
For Year 11 students, this timetable replaces their existing timetable, which means that every day from Tuesday 7th May students will either be in scheduled revision sessions or their exams.
However, Year 13 students are expected to attend all of their normal timetabled lessons unless they have an exam briefing session that is on this timetable which will be either on the afternoon before, or the morning of, their exam.
Students who are enrolled on Btec courses must continue to attend all their lessons until the Head of Department for that subject confirms to them and the Sixth Form team that their coursework has been completed, marked, moderated and signed off by the exam board. Only at this point will they be advised they no longer need to attend these lessons and will only be expected to attend their other timetabled lessons.
If you have any specific queries or concerns, please contact either Mr Shrimpton for Year 11 (alecshrimpton@graceacademy.org.uk) or Mrs Moore for Year 13 (louisemoore@graceacademy.org.uk).
Kind regards,
Miss Lavelle
Assistant Principal for Key Stage 4
