‘How to Support your Child with Reading’ evening – Monday 30th January, 5.30–6.30pm
Due to the range of media and technology available to students in the 21st Century, it is becoming harder to engage young people in reading. It is a fact, however, that reading proves the master skill of school, and developing a life-long reading habit can dramatically improve student outcomes.
On Monday 30th January, we will be running a short ‘How to Support your Child with Reading’ evening which aims to offer help and guidance for parents, and offer a better understanding of the interventions we have running in school. While this evening is intended predominantly for those parents of students taking part in reading interventions (for whom, invitations should already have been received), we would like to extend this invite to any parents who would like to know more about supporting their child’s reading skills.
If you would like to join us, please confirm your attendance here.
Ofsted Report
As you may be aware, Ofsted visited us in December 2022 for an ungraded inspection. Ordinarily, a school wouldn’t expect another visit for 4-5 years. However, the inspection team found enough evidence that the quality of education provided by Lymm High School is now outstanding. This means that they have recommended a further, graded, inspection to take place within a year or two. This was the best possible outcome available to us and we are delighted that the progress of the last few years has been recognised in this way.

Wednesday 1st February 2023
As you may be aware, Wednesday 1st February is already scheduled as an INSET day at Lymm High School so the proposed national teachers’ strike won’t affect any students on this day.
We’ll be in touch nearer the time about the later proposed strike dates if we do anticipate any significant disruption.
It is a rather dynamic situation at the moment with, amongst other factors, different teaching unions potentially re-balloting members and we ask for your understanding that things might change before the second planned day of strikes (Tuesday 28th February).
