💜 National Thank a Teacher Day 💜

What would you like to thank a teacher for?

As we come towards the end of another busy year, we’d love to hear from our students. (And families )

💜 Has a teacher helped you when things were difficult?

📚 Inspired you to achieve more?

😊 Made you smile, feel confident, or believe in yourself?

⭐ Gone above and beyond to support you?

Take a moment to share a message of thanks and let them know the difference they have made.

A few kind words can mean the world.

📱 Log in to Class Charts and complete the form to send your message.

✅ Complete the form as many times as you like for different teachers and members of staff.

✨ Murder, mystery and all that jazz! ✨

Today marked the final full cohort exam and our Year 11 Leavers’ Assembly – a special opportunity for staff and students to celebrate everything this amazing year group has achieved.

The assembly included a heartfelt poem from Miss Wilson, awards and certificates presented by subject teachers, readings from staff, and a wonderful speech from Head of Year, Mrs Wade.

We finished the morning with photographs, memories, and the signing of shirts – quite possibly the most beautiful leavers’ shirts we have ever seen.

Year 11, thank you for the memories, the laughter, and the resilience you have shown throughout your time with us. We are incredibly proud of each and every one of you.

We look forward to celebrating with you again at Prom and seeing you on Results Day.

Good luck for our Spanish students, we’ll see you tomorrow for your exam!

Remember, once Willenhall, always Willenhall.
