The transition into year 8 can often bring feelings of uncertainty and excitement. My goal is to ensure Year 8 continue to thrive and flourish as they did in Year 7.

It has been expressed to the year group that they are now role models to our new Year 7 pupils. There will be continued focus on behaviour, attendance and importantly, engagement in the classroom. Our Year 8 core values are still very much at the heart of everything we do, and as I explained to the pupils in assembly, resilience is key this year. Expectations in the classroom and around homework will be higher but I have no doubt at all that year 8 will excel and embrace the new challenges of this academic year.   

 

At Toynbee we are committed to every student achieving their personal best; it is vital that we all work together to support our students, and maintaining a positive relationship and open communication will be one of my main priorities as we go through the year.

I am confident that together, we can provide the guidance and encouragement your child will need to excel academically, build resilience, and develop into well-rounded, socially responsible individuals.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
