Dear Parents and Carers
We come to the last week of term, and I must thank you first of all for working with us through yet another national crisis – this time the heat. Hopefully this will be a rare occasion, but students did conduct themselves sensibly and safely while in school during the heatwave.
Results day this year is scheduled for Thursday 25th August. For the last two years, Covid
restrictions have meant that students were invited in individually at a specified time.
However, we are now able to revert back to our normal way of working. This means students
can come to collect results in person at any time between 10am and 12 noon on the day.
Please note that Chaucer is closed on Friday 22nd July, school breaks up for the summer on Thursday 21st July at 12 noon, FSM students are able to order in advance and collect grab bag lunches before they leave school site, many thanks
Tuesday 12th July is Chaucer School Sports Day. All students should attend in Chaucer PE kit, and also bring a refillable water bottle, a hat, and sun cream. Students will spend much of their day outside.
This guide will help you set up parental controls to provide your child with a safer online environment.

As part of our ongoing efforts to maximise attendance to school, we are making a slight change to how we operate the registers in the morning. This change is to ensure as many children as possible are in the building, learning, and opening as many doors as possible to bright futures.
Are you interested in joining Chaucer School’s Local Governing Body as a Parent Governor? We currently have a vacancy and need your skills and knowledge to bring a parental perspective to the school’s priorities and strategy to assure the continued development and success of Chaucer School.
There have been some leadership changes at Chaucer School and Tapton School Academy Trust that I need to make you aware of. Please see the attached letter for more information.
Best wishes

Due to Government Funding in the Adult Education Budget, we have several Free online Level 2 Accredited Courses available to staff and Parents to help better understand some key issues around young people's mental health and wellbeing, along with a range of other qualifications that may help with developing their own careers.
Updated 8th March.
A message from NCS:
We have unfortunately had to change the date for the upcoming NCS Air Haus event for Year 11.
We have changed it from the 9th March to the 14th April, as we had a lot say they couldn’t make it due to it being during the school week. Taking this into consideration we have moved the event to the 14th April from 5 pm till 7 pm so it is during the Easter holidays.
We are sorry for any inconveniences this causes.
You can still sign up via the link https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/new-date-sheffield-wednesday-community-programme-ncs-event-air-haus-tickets-265807616737
Please find the latest half-term newsletter from our Head of School attached. We would like to wish you all a restful and safe half-term, and we look forward to welcoming all students back on Monday 21st of February.
Please read the attached letter regarding trail examinations for year 11 students.
We are now launching the options process with Y9 in full. Owing to the current covid situation, we have deemed it best to share information with you virtually, in order to minimise face to face interactions. We have placed the information we would normally share with you in person on a specially created section of the school website.
Despite ongoing COVID related staffing difficulties across Sheffield and the UK, we are happy to be managing to stay open for all students at the moment. Long may that continue! Chaucer students continue to learn and we continue to develop with your help – so the time is right for us to share some updates with you.
Please see the information attached regarding LFD testing, self-isolation, masks and vaccinations.
