So, what have we achieved?

Considerable investment has enhanced the learning environment at Peelhouse Lane. If you have visited the site, you may have seen the brand new Food Technology room with state of the art equipment, or the new Design and Technology and ICT suites where your child will study our specialisms. Our Classroom of the Future, commonly known as the “Wow” Room will be completed in September; this includes a radio station and the latest Media technology for learning across all subjects.

 

Cultural Diversity has been one of our priorities this year and we have been delighted to receive several awards in this area, most recently the SSAT Gold Cultural Diversity Quality Mark, the Classroom of the Future Award and the Confucius Classroom Award, all of which involve pupils, parents and teachers working with the international community.

 

Pupil leadership has been one of our key focuses, with our School Council groups being instrumental in securing the awards in Cultural Diversity and all groups taking an active part in contributing to our School Development Plan and the future of our school. I’m delighted to inform you that several of our Y11 pupils achieved a Liverpool Hope University Leadership Award and that this scheme will be offered to Y10 pupils from October.

 

Whatever the Government decides about the BSF programme, we are confident that the school is in an excellent position to continue to raise standards for all pupils.  We are looking forward to Fairfield High School pupils and the new Year 7 pupils being part of Wade Deacon High School in September. Parents and the local community can be assured that our ‘Commitment to Excellence’ in the education of our young people remains our first priority.
