Happy New School Year (well nearly!)
We look forward to welcoming year 7 and 12 students tomorrow and years 8,9,10,11 and 13 on Friday.
As a reminder, the warning bell goes at 8.25 ready for school to start at 8.30am. We expect students in full smart uniform with a full set of equipment to support a successful start to the year (see website for details).
In order to improve the safety of our students, pedestrians visiting site and ensure safe vehicle movements, we have made some much needed improvements to our entrance and car park over the Summer Holidays. Students will no longer be able to enter or exit the school via the ALC roadway at the start and end of school, the interconnecting gate between the ALC car park and FCC will be the pedestrian entrance to the West alongside Goodwood Avenue and Drygrounds Lane to the East.
Visitors to the school, Sixth Form and students arriving or leaving the school during the school day (with permission) will be able to use the main pedestrian gate in the normal way via Reception intercom (Sixth Form to use access cards).
Thank you for your support with keeping our students and the school site as safe as possible.
