A very warm welcome back to all of you as we embark on this new academic year. I hope that theSCAIDPhoto long hot summer gave you all the chance to truly rest and recharge. We are raring to go and thrilled to open our doors again, ready for another term filled with exciting learning, personal growth, and fresh challenges.

 

The start of a new term always brings a special buzz, especially for our new Year 7 students, and it has been wonderful to see their smiling faces and positive attitudes around the school this week.

 

This year is particularly special, as it marks 10 years since we first welcomed pupils to our school in 2015. It has been a decade of remarkable progress, during which we have not only built a school, but a thriving, highly valued community. We have established ourselves as a successful and indispensable part of the local area, something we are deeply proud of. We are so grateful for the incredible and unwavering support of our families, which has been instrumental in every success we've celebrated.

It was lovely to welcome so many students into our Sixth Form this week. We have a bumper cohort this year with more than ever choosing to stay with us for the sixth form and 26 new joiners.

Huge congratulations are due to Catriona in Year 13. She achieved the excellent score of 2120 out of 2700 in her UCAT exam, the admissions test used by most universities for entry into medical and dental degree programs.

Over the summer we celebrated another really strong set of GCSE and A-Level results.

 

Our pupils' achievement further reinforced our position as one of the top-performing non-selective secondary schools in the UK. We are incredibly proud of our students and our teachers and staff for helping them to achieve their full potential.
