YEAR 6 VIRTUAL OPEN EVENING 2020
Due to the current situation, we have restricted access to the school site. Therefore, we will unfortunately be unable to hold an open evening for you as we would normally do in September. Instead, we are working on a virtual open evening which will allow you to hear from some of the staff in the school and get an insight into what you can expect should you choose to send your child here next year.
From Friday 16th October 2020, there will be an area on the ‘year 6 transition’ section of the school’s website from where you will be able to see:
Going forward, I hope that we will be able to welcome you and the students in to the school later in the academic year. Meanwhile, if you have further enquiries regarding the transition process, please contact Mrs Jamieson, the school’s Transition Lead at alison.jamieson@flint.flintshire.sch.uk.
From Friday 16th October 2020, there will be an area on the ‘year 6 transition’ section of the school’s website from where you will be able to see:

- Messages from students and staff about the transition process.
Going forward, I hope that we will be able to welcome you and the students in to the school later in the academic year. Meanwhile, if you have further enquiries regarding the transition process, please contact Mrs Jamieson, the school’s Transition Lead at alison.jamieson@flint.flintshire.sch.uk.

Free School Meals Update September 2020
As not all year groups will be returning to school within the first two weeks of the autumn term, you will continue to receive the free school meal award via a secure direct payment for your child(ren) for the period 1st September 2020 to 11th September 2020. Due to this your child(ren) will not receive a free school meal on the days they attend school during this time, therefore you will need to provide your child(ren) with a packed lunch or money to purchase a lunch using the school’s preferred payment method. From Monday 14 September, children will start receiving free school meals as normal and the direct payments will stop. Year 12 pupils If your child(ren) is returning to year 12 and you are eligible to free school meals, you will need to reapply on line via Flintshire County Councils web site. |

From the Headteacher
As well as a track record of academic excellence, examination success and a wide range of personal and creative development opportunities we provide a personal touch that makes our school so special. Our pastoral care and support is exceptional and something we are very proud of. |
We are a very welcoming school, with every member of staff contributing to that warm welcome. We value all our students and know them well, we know their potential to succeed and quickly get to know their families. This is something we cherish. We listen to our students, parents and carers, who help us in our continued commitment to innovation and improvement.
The size of our school is important. It is small enough for us to know each child, yet large enough to offer a broad and balanced curriculum, with a wide variety of extra-curricular activities for Year 7 to Year 13 students.
We are proud to be a successful community school. Our thriving sixth form partnership with St Richard Gwyn High School has wholehearted community support and our links with Ysgol Maes Hyfryd enhance our provision and philosophy of inclusion.
Our motto is ‘Believe, Achieve, Succeed'. This reflects our conviction that every student deserves the best chance to flourish and learn in a happy environment.
