KS3 June Exams

Natalie McGillivary

Our Year 7, 8 and 9 students will be sitting their summer exams in English, Maths, Science, Humanities and Languages between 10th and 21st June.

An exam timetable for each year group can be accessed here. To find your child’s specific exam dates on these, you need their subject class codes which can be found on their own timetable.
These exams will assess students’ knowledge and understanding of the content they have covered this academic year. Details of the specific content/topics can be found in our comprehensive revision guide, which can be found here.

HPV vaccinations

Natalie McGillivary

Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccinations are being offered to Year 8 students as part of the national school-aged vaccination programme. This programme can help to protect young people against some types of HPV-related cancers. To consent for your child to have the HPV vaccine on Thursday 18th or Thursday 25th April, please follow the steps outlined in this letter.

Please note that the consent process closes at 11am, 2 working days prior to the session in school.

 

Facial recognition technology for fast, contactless school meal transactions

Natalie McGillivary

Lymm High School is installing facial recognition technology to replace the current fingerprint method used to purchase items from our cashless cafeteria. This decision has been made in response to feedback about the lengths of queues at break and lunchtime. The new technology will help to speed up service at our six food serveries across the school site.

Please click here to read the full letter. We hope parents/carers can provide consent and complete this Facial Recognition Consent Form by Friday 26th April 2024.

 

Ofsted

Natalie McGillivary

As you know, we had another visit from Ofsted this week. We’re not allowed to say anything until the report is released in a few weeks’ time, but would like to thank parents and carers for their support.

The survey responses were incredibly positive and mean a great deal to us; thank you.

We should also say that students were a credit to you and themselves throughout the process.
