Headteacher’s message

This is just a brief message to thank you all for your support during our first week of lockdown 2021. Students have adapted well to remote learning once again and are producing some amazing work.

I will be providing regular assembly updates on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays until school fully reopens. Our school newsletter will be published on Fridays with any additional school news and as a resource for information alongside our website. Communication will be sent to families via Weduc/email and will be issuing details next week on the lateral flow testing schools have been asked to undertake when students return – please look out for this.

We are continuing to provide hampers for families entitled to free school meals and are relaunching our ‘We Are Highfields’ Fund to support Highfields families (see details on pages 7 and 8).

Please look after yourselves and your families and let us know if you need help either via year managers, heads of year or when communicating with other school staff.

Remember we love to hear from you and see all the wonderful things you are doing. Please send any music, drama and shout outs to include in assemblies to: wearehighfields@highfields.derbyshire.sch.uk

We are Highfields.

A Marsh Headteacher
