Hello and welcome to College Form 1 2023/24

Dear Parents, 

 

We hope this message finds you well and excited for the term ahead. Please click here to see Form 1's topic web for terms 3 & 4. The members of the class team are pleased to be working with Form 1 during this period, and we look forward to a term filled with growth, learning, and exciting experiences for your young adults. 

 

Our primary goal is to foster the development of appropriate levels of independence in your young people, providing the necessary support as they navigate through Key Stage 5 and transition into their post-19 placements. We believe in equipping them with the skills and confidence needed for the next steps in their educational journey. 

 

Our focus extends beyond the traditional classroom setting. We are committed to incorporating as many 'real-life' practical activities as possible, ensuring that our students are well-prepared for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. From exploring myths to honing functional English and Maths skills, we are dedicated to a holistic approach to education. 

 

In addition to classroom learning, we offer individual opportunities for experiences outside the college environment. These include engaging in work experience, hands-on construction projects, nurturing gardens in our Muddy Wellies program, and even enjoying swimming sessions. 

 

To tailor the educational experience to each student's interests, they have had the opportunity to make choices from a selection of options. Individual timetables are now in place, ensuring a personalized and effective learning journey. 

 

Communication between home and school remains a priority. We will continue to use contact books and/ or email for daily updates. Should you ever need to reach us directly, feel free to call the school's main number and request to be put through to the college. I am available to address any concerns or queries and working days are Wednesday to Friday. You can also reach me via email at a.grant@stns.org.uk. 

 

Thank you for entrusting us with the education and growth of your young adults. We look forward to a collaborative and successful term ahead. 

 

Kind regards, 

Alison Grant and the Form 1 team 


6th Form - Class 1
