A huge thanks to Pat from Oddballs who delivered fantastic talks to our year 10 & 11 students on 5th November 2021, raising awareness of testicular cancer. We are looking forward to carrying out some more awareness raising activities and charity events throughout this academic year!
We are delighted to have seen such wonderful pupil and staff engagement in our Black History Month activities this week and throughout the whole of Black History Month.
A massive well done and thank you to all pupils and staff involved in hosting our cake sale, film showings, assemblies, featuring cultural dance performances and our themed lunch menu including dishes from Jamaica and West Africa.
On Tuesday 12th October, it was wonderful to welcome 90 pupils from Abingdon Primary School to Reddish Vale English department, for 2 creative writing workshop sessions across the day.
As part of National Space Week, some of our female pupils participated in a 'Women in Aerospace' webinar yesterday to discover different careers in this field.
Careers Fair 2021
On Thursday 23rd September 2021, the year 10 and 11 students took part in the annual Further Education fair where they got to develop their knowledge and understanding of the vast array of opportunities open to them from local colleges and Apprenticeship providers to Football courses and RAF.
Thank you to all FE Providers that attended to help our students reach their potential. All careers info for student and parents is available through the school website and the Xello platform.
' It was really useful to find out which colleges do the course I want.'
'I had no idea all the different courses I can do, an Apprenticeship in mechanics is the one for me!'
' It was so good to have all the colleges in one place! I know exactly which one is right for me and with the Our Pass it's easy to get there!'
You can view photographs from the event on our Events Gallery page.
Please see below for the Summer Newsletter, which includes uniform and equipment expectations for September, news and events updates and a message from our Headteacher, Mrs Hanson.
We have received the very sad news that Jenny Campbell, former Headteacher at Reddish Vale, has passed away, after losing her battle to cancer.
For those of you who knew her, take a moment to remember how much she committed and contributed to the development of the school.
We apologies for any inconvenience caused by the recent self-isolation requests relating to Covid. As a school we have to follow guidance, which currently requires any named close contacts of a positive test case to self- isolate. In the case of a lateral flow positive result we will only request isolation until a PCR result is presented, if this is positive the isolation period continues up to 10 days, if negative pupils will be asked to return to school. All positive cases need to be reported to school immediately. Lateral flow tests should be regularly administered for all consenting pupils, regardless of whether pupils have symptoms or not. A positive lateral flow must be followed up with a PCR.
A big thank you to Carl Austin-Behan for delivering assemblies on Wednesday 23rd June to our year 9 students based on LGBTQ+ & respect as part of our whole school Respect Campaign.
