A reminder that from tomorrow, Tuesday 12th September, it will be compulsory for all students to wear their blazers. A list of our full uniform policy can be found here
Due to the forecasted high temperatures, blazers will be optional on Monday 11th September. All other uniform items, including ties, will be required.
Blazers will be compulsory as per the uniform policy from Tuesday 12th September as temperatures are due to return to the seasonal norm.
As the first week draws to a close, we'd like to thank everyone for helping us enable such a smooth start to the term and for the students for embracing the changes so quickly. I would also like to thank parents personally for their messages of support - it really is appreciated.

Message from Mr I Housley, Head of Year 10
A huge welcome to you parents and carers, my name is Ian Housley and I am Head of Year 10 at KSA. I would like to take this opportunity to say how much I am looking forward to working with Year 10 and also with each and everyone of you over the next 2 years.
The Year 10 progress evening will give you the opportunity to discuss progress from last academic year where students began the foundation work of their GCSE or BTEC courses. More importantly however, you will also be able to discuss with subject staff what students need to do in order to meet or exceed their target grades.
This is a key evening which we would encourage all parents and carers of Year 10 to attend virtually. Together in partnership we can support and guide our students to give them the best chance of academic success.
We look forward to seeing you next Wednesday.
