I think it’s safe to say none of us will ever forget this year.

Although it has been very challenging, we have battled through lockdown together and we are starting to return to some kind of normal.

It is important to remember the many successes we have had this year. All of our students are making good progress. It is not only the progress in our lessons but also in our ability to manage our behaviour independently and to make and maintain friendships. To top it all, it is incredibly pleasing to see the students and staff arrive each day ready and eager to make the most of the opportunities presented to them.

Thank you parents for your continued, ongoing support – we cannot do the work without your help. To each and every staff member, thank you for your phenomenal effort this year – I know I can count on you next year too.

Most importantly, to our wonderful talented and resilient students. Thank you for making this tricky year incredibly rewarding and enjoyable. In your own unique ways, you have all taken on new challenges and made lots and lots of progress. I could not be prouder of you all!

Have a lovely summer break, we look forward to welcoming you back to school in September.
