This morning, the children involved in the UK-Ukraine Schools Partnership project received a letter of thanks from the Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer. Chaucer School are so proud of them and, as the Prime Minister rightly notes, believe they are expanding their horizons, and building their confidence. 

Next week we will share with our partner school in Mukachevo all about our House System, and how we are inspired by Pete McKee, Jessica Ennis-Hill, and Helen Sharman. 

Please see the link below for information from our Headteacher and the Trust's Chief Executive Officer regarding rebranding.

We are delighted to have set up a new partnership with a school in Ukraine, offering our students the opportunity to connect with their Ukrainian peers on a project that celebrates the joy of reading. Through the British Council’s UK-Ukraine School Partnerships programme, which is funded by the UK Government, we’ve teamed up with Mukachevo Specialised school No.4. Together, we’ll explore how reading can broaden horizons, build confidence, and enhance mental wellbeing.

A message from the School Age Administration Team.
Dear Parents/Carers of Year 9 students,
We will attend school to vaccinate Y9 students for the Booster dose of DTP Diphtheria, Tetanus & Polio along with Meningococcal ACWY. We will also offer the HPV Human Papilloma Vaccine if they did not receive this in Y8.

Please copy this link https://www.sheffieldchildrensvaccinations.co.uk/Forms/DTP to complete the consent form for DTP and MENACWY. The option to consent or decline the vaccinations is at the end of the questionnaire, so please complete this even if you do not want your child to have the vaccinations.

Please copy this link https://www.sheffieldchildrensvaccinations.co.uk/Forms/HPV to complete the consent form for HPV, but only if your child did not have HPV last year.

If you consented for HPV last year but your child did not get vaccinated, we will vaccinate them using the consent submitted last year.

Vaccination date: 27/Mar/2025

On Thursday 6^th of March we are really excited to be celebrating World Book Day. Students are invited to come dressed as their favourite character or in school uniform.

We would like to thank all students and staff for their hard work this half term. We hope you all have a good break, and we will see you back on Monday 24th February 2025 at 8.30am.

We would like to welcome all Year 11 students to our revision sessions which will be held over the February half-term. Please see dates and times below for the sessions. 

Retrieval Practice is a powerful study tool that is important in the act of revision. It helps strengthen memory by pulling information out of your head rather than cramming information in.
