  • QHS Newsletter
    Cognita School QHS Newsletter Autumn Term 2016 Dear Parents Contents: Recently I asked one of my colleagues, what was their reason for staying in teaching for so many years. Their reply was that they loved doing a job where no two days were the same, where you never knew exactly what was going to happen. I’m not sure if that is why I have stayed in education for so long but there is no denying the variety of my job as Headteacher. The run up to the Christmas holidays has included handing out Year 11 Mock examination results, taking part in a Christingle Service with Reception, Q1 and Q2, handing out raffle p1. Letter from Ms Co- prizes at the Senior Citizens Christmas event, watching a Nativity, attending Parents’ Eve- zens nings, listening to concerts and who could have failed to be touched when Nursery visited my office to post their letters to Santa in my ‘magic fireplace’. It is very true that no two p2. Shakespeare Festi- days are ever the same, but there are underlying principles that do remain the same every val day. The school exists because of its pupils, they are the most important part of our school community, but by themselves the school would be a strange place, it takes parents and p4. Guide to New staff to make the school what it is. Every day we work together to enable the pupils to GCSE Grading System achieve the best they possibly can, we strive together to create the school that Quinton is. We are sad to say goodbye to three members of staff at the end of this term.
