Summer Term
12th June 2026
Dear Parents, This week there has definitely been a theme of learning and assessment about it. We have completed our biannual online progress assessments in English, Reading, Spelling, Maths and Science. On Tuesday, I was out of school celebrating and being commissioned following the successful completion of a course I have attended this year in Contemporary Chaplaincy. On Wednesday, many of your daughters were involved in LAMDA examinations. Mike and Gael informed me that the girls performed their pieces impeccably and the examiner was very impressed. Other pupils have been busy rehearsing ahead of next week’s ABRSM examinations. Our PE Department held our own internal Athletics competition during Games and many girls have represented the school in tennis, cricket and athletics, as well as external competitions as you will see on the Sports page. Next week, we are looking forward to celebrating Values Week which our Prep School Council representatives have been working towards with their Senior counterparts this term. The girls are already looking forward to taking part in Breakioke! Remember, Friday 19th June, we will have charity day, which is also now a mufti-day (see poster) and celebrate the end of our Year of Compassion (as our value) with stalls, party atmosphere and fun. And finally, you will see from Mr. Field’s letter the full ISI inspection report, from which I would like to highlight a couple of comments particularly related to your daughter’s: “In the prep school, the curriculum is carefully designed to make meaningful links between an appropriate range of subjects, enabling pupils to connect concepts and develop practical life skills. For example, pupils engage in activities such as growing vegetables and preparing nutritious meals, which deepen their understanding of sustainability and wellbeing.” “From an early age, pupils typically demonstrate respect for one another. In the prep school, they listen attentively, take turns in discussion and show a clear understanding of fairness and equality. Behaviour is typically good, and relationships are positive. Leaders and staff respond appropriately to any worries raised by pupils and provide them with access to pastoral support, including counselling where needed. Pupils contribute actively to school life, for example through the school council, where they are able to express their views and influence aspects of provision.” My thanks to my staff, your daughter’s and yourselves - this truly is a wonderfully, warm and welcoming school with incredible pastoral care and learning for life. Best wishes, Gareth Tindall
