Many thanks for the numerous positive comments about the new
school website. As we strive to
achieve excellence in our communications with our community we are delighted
that you are finding the website so useful. We are continuing to work on this to provide a range of
functions so if some links are not ‘live’ please be patient.
As I create more blog posts and I become familiar with the technology the updates will appear
on a more regular basis. In order
for you to be informed straight away of any new content on the website, in this
blog or for more general news about the school please follow us on Twitter -@marlwoodschool.
If you do not currently have a twitter account I would encourage you to
set one up, this can be done quickly at www.twitter.com. The key advantage to using twitter is
that it enables you to receive information from the school (and other places)
direct to your computer or mobile device through the twitter website or ‘APP’. We are planning on a number of accounts
within the Marlwood School brand that you can follow to receive information
from across the school.
This term continues at quite a pace. Students and staff continue to work
hard together to achieve excellence in learning and student outcomes. Year 11 and 13 are focused on their
forthcoming exams. They are
reminded often that they are not very far away. Year 11 students are receiving their mock exam results and a
whole range of support and interventions are being put in place to ensure they
achieve the best results they can.
A large number of students are contributing to our community on a daily
basis, a big thank you to them all and to the staff who are supporting them. Some highlights are identified
below. Please check the calendar
carefully for all upcoming events.
