  • February 2018
    The Joseph Whitaker School An Academy specialising in Sport and Performing Arts February 2018 Dear Parent / Carer I hope you enjoy reading the first newsletter of 2018. A reminder that we are regularly posting news on twitter and facebook. Additionally, a new and improved website will be launched before Easter. Hear It Stop It (#nobystanders) At the start of next half-term the school community will be further strengthening our approach to respect and tolerance. This will be delivered via the Stonewall Champion School framework which aims to: tackle homophobic, biphobic and transphobic bullying. make school a place where all pupils and staff are accepted without exception. champions diversity and celebrates difference A series of assemblies, posters in classrooms and tutor discussions will reinforce tolerance and respect in terms of gender, racism and homophobia. All staff and students will be asked not to ignore any use of inappropriate language and I would ask if parents can continue to support this at home. We want to encourage a culture in which it is the norm to want to succeed and to be the best you can be; not be worried about peer group pressure resisting these ideals. I would stress that as a Good school we want to become Outstanding and this is a key part of that journey. Staffing update At the end of this half-term we say goodbye to Miss Gardiner, mathematics teacher, who is leaving to start a new job at Nottingham Trent University. We wish her the very best of luck in her new position. Reminders Please could parents continue to use the school bus park in the morning to drop students off and not the sports hall car park.
