Each half-term, we hold achievement assemblies to reward students for outstanding work in their subjects. Students who receive an award gain points for their House, a certificate and an invitation to our Awards Evening held at the end of each year at the Albert Hall in Nottingham. See the next newsletter edition to see if your child has reached the Top 10 or if they are going to be one of our Rising Stars.
