Dear Parent/Carer We have had another couple of busy weeks at school that has seen the return of Year 10 students to school for pastoral/learning meetings. It has been great to see so many of our students whom we’ve really missed! We continue to follow social distancing measures and government guidance to ensure our community remains as safe as possible whilst learning continues in a variety of ways. We continue to be incredibly proud of the staff delivering a full, interactive online learning programme. We are one of the only Trusts across the country to have had this in place since the start of lockdown and continue to develop and improve the programme. Where requested, we have also been providing home learning packs. We are determined that no student will fall behind during these unprecedented times. Please do get in touch if you need any support.

We realise that for some of our students learning
online has taken them out of their comfort zone,
and we know they would prefer to be in their
classrooms participating in lessons. However, we
believe it is our role through this pandemic to
continue to deliver a CORE education and to
remain role models for all our students. We will do
our best to ensure that all students come back to
us safe and equipped to continue their learning in
school. To support the education of our stu-
dents we will continue to perform live teaching
online. Timetables for all year groups can be
found on the school website and on the school
twitter account.
9:30 am—10:00 am: Form time
10:00 am—11:00 am: Lesson 1
11:00 am—11:30 am: Break
11:30 am—12:30 pm: Lesson 2
12:30 pm—1: 30 pm: Lesson 3
Students can spend the afternoon by
engaging with CORE Extra.
Recently we have been able to evaluate and
reflect on our CORE Extra programme and have,
as a result, developed the offer so that more
students can engage in extracurricular activities.
Praise coming your way from the Creative Arts Department!
The Creative Arts Department are rewarding continued effort, attendance and good work this week
with Praise e-cards! Look out for the 'post'!
Completion Winner
Alex Fisher was the winner of the first 'Lockdown Toilet Roll Challenge' with his tower measuring in
excess of 1 metre high. A prize is on its way to you Alex - well done! Details of our second
'Lockdown Toilet Roll Challenge' are on TEAMS or ask your tutors for more details.
Black Lives Matter
The Creative Arts Faculty are facilitating a Creative Arts project centred around Black Lives Matter. It
is open to all Central & City students, with the project culminating in a visual 2D tonal art piece that
will be displayed on site, on a 'Black Lives Matter Wall'. In addition, there will be a spoken word, au-
dio element to complement the piece. All students are welcome to get involved, please contact
Miss Holder (City) or Ms. Graham (Central) for more information..
To celebrate and raise awareness of positive role models, staff are using the footer of their emails to
identify people they admire. These are just a selection:
“I admire Frederick Douglas for being an inspirational role model of hope and overcoming adversity. He was
an orator, writer and social reformer who escaped slavery to become a national leader of the Abolitionist
Movement “Without a struggle, there can be no progress.” - Mr Michael
“I admire Rosa Parks. Rosa Parks was a civil rights activist, social reformer, and racial justice advocate. Her ar-rest for refusing to give up her seat on a city bus triggered the 1965-1966 Montgomery bus boycott and be-
came a turning point of the civil rights movement. What she did for so many was incredible!“ - Ms Dass
“I admire Marsha P Johnson, a transgender gay rights activist who was heavily involved in the 1969 Stonewall Riots. She helped pave the way for gay rights despite the hardships of being both black and trans and only
recently is she getting the recognition she deserves.“ - Mr Hampton
