Agent Newsletter – June 2025
Dear Colleague,
As we step into one of the most exciting times of the school year, I am filled with a deep sense of pride and joy in being part of this extraordinary community. The weeks ahead are rich with tradition, celebration, and connection — from the excitement of Cricket Week to the showcase of talent and achievement on Speech Day, and the unforgettable memories of the Leavers’ Ball.
Fee Freeze for the Academic Year 2025–2026
We’re pleased to announce that there will be no increase in fees for the upcoming academic year. This decision reflects our commitment to supporting our students and their families, ensuring continued access to quality education without added financial burden. We understand the importance of stability during these times, and we’re proud to stand with our community by keeping education affordable.
We’re Bringing BTEC Back – Business & Sport return this September!
I’m pleased to announce the re-introduction of the BTEC in Business and BTEC in Sport starting September 2025.
These dynamic, career-focused qualifications are designed to give students practical skills, real-world knowledge, and a clear pathway to university or employment. Whether pupils are passionate about entrepreneurship or dreaming of a future in the sports industry, these BTEC courses are a great launchpad to success. We’re excited to welcome pupils back into these engaging programs.
