PUPIL SUPPORT

Welcome to Pupil Support where we'll be bringing together important information to help you and your family through this difficult time.

Please take the opportunity to read through some of the excellent information in the summer edition of the FIND newsletter.

This is new and may change as we go along. We hope you'll let us know what else you think could be included here and even what's less useful too.

Thank you Students & Parents for your support.
