This week, teachers have been going through their exam papers and providing feedback opportunities with students. When we return in January students will only have five months to go until their final exams!

Thank you for your support for the school throughout 2018. We continue to make good progress as a school, as recognised by Ofsted in May when they stated that “improvements are increasingly evident”. We are fully staffed for January 2019 and look forward to another successful twelve months for the school, improving the quality of the education that we can provide for your children. I wish all students and families a very happy Christmas and peaceful New Year.

HT Sport Spotlight

Name Billy Bates Year 9 Club Norwich City Football Club What sport and level do you compete at? Championship football. How long have you competed for them? One year. How did you get into the sport? I just started playing. What’s your most memorable moment while competing? Making my debut for Norwich verses Chelsea and scoring a goal. What’s your biggest achievement within the sport you compete in? Getting bought for £36,000 from Leyton Orient What are your future goals in your sport? To play at a professional level. Who is your role model? Joe Gomez. What personal characteristics does your sport need? Leader and strong mind-set/mentality. If you were to give anyone advice on how to get involved in your sport, what would it be? Always give it your best shot and never give up.

Name Jamie Telfer Year 9 Club Arsenal FC What sport and level do you compete at? I play football at Arsenal FC which is in the Premier League. This is one of the best leagues in the world. How long have you competed for them? I have played for Arsenal for two years and have entered my third season. How did you get into the sport? I played for Cheshunt FC for a bit of fun because my friends played for this team. Then I was scouted for a league two team called Stevenage. I played there for less than a year then I was transferred to Arsenal. What’s your most memorable moment while competing? My memorable moment is when I made my debut for Arsenal. I made my debut in a tournament in which we reached the final. It is memorable because I saved a penalty to keep us in it. What’s your biggest achievement within the sport you compete in? My biggest achievement was when I transferred from Stevenage to Arsenal because they paid a lot of money for me at the age I was. What are your future goals in your sport? My future goals are playing for Arsenal’s first team and I’m pushing to get an England International call-up for next year. Who is your role model? My football role model is a goalkeeper called David De Gea because he’s one of the best in the world. My other role model would be my Mum because she has taught me no matter how many times you fail you don’t give up. What personal characteristics does your sport need? The personal characteristics you need to have are a strong positive mind-set and you have to keep focused on what your doing. If you were to give anyone advice on how to get involved in your sport, what would it be? If I was to give advice for people getting involved in football I would say stay dedicated and always perform to the best of your abilities. If something goes wrong don’t beat yourself up about it and keep your head. Also listen to any advice your coaches have given you because they are just trying to get the best out of you.
