There are currently two vacancies for Parent Governors on the Local Governing Body of Nunthorpe Academy. Parents or carers of students attending the academy are invited to apply.

Redcar and Cleveland currently do not have a formally recognised parent/carer forum. Redcar and Cleveland Local Authority are therefore working in partnership with Contact a Family to support the development of a new forum and we need your help and support.

We launched our Prom Points Process with the Y11s this week. Students should all have brought home the information and accompanying letter to share with you. Please ensure you have read this through, discussed with your student how they can achieve the required amount of points to enable them to attend and signed the reply slip.

Recent warm weather, light nights and the approaching summer, school holidays has raised the anxiety of Redcar and Cleveland Borough Councils’ substance misuse service for young people, CREST.

The purpose of Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG) is to prepare for the curriculum choices that young people make which have implications for their future progression routes.

We know that there are lots of things for your family to consider when the academy week begins; but have you and your child decided what they will be having for lunch every day?

As you are aware during the week Monday 3 July 2017 – Friday 7 July 2017 Year 10 students will be taking part in Work Experience Week.

As of Monday 10 October 2016 all students wishing to use the Compass Royston Bus Service will need to have a ‘Right to Ride’ ID Card. Students will receive one of these once they have submitted a signed copy of the attached Behaviour Contract to Student Reception. Please read the letter and the contract carefully if you wish your student to continue using this service. Please remember that this service is a joint agreement between parents and the bus company and Nunthorpe Academy are simply facilitating the administration of the cards on their behalf.

ParentPay commissioned research to discover what else parents wanted from ParentPay. They wanted to help families on lower incomes, give more flexibility in how parents pay, and support schools in becoming completely cashless.

Your child will be participating in the Accelerated Reader™ (AR™) program. This guide is designed to answer your questions about AR. If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact Mrs Wilkinson (Librarian).
