Open Evening 2020

/in /by

Open Evening 2020 – Monday July 6th
(This evening will be replaced with virtual information due to Covid-19 restrictions)

Our understanding is that secondary schools will only have limited student and staff access for the remainder of this term, so the annual Open Evening on 6th July will be replaced with information for you in a virtual format.

We will use this page of the website to upload key information for you at the beginning of July, including:

  1. A new school film (2020) showing you the school in action
  2. A virtual tour of the school learning campus so that you can see the facilities
  3. A new school prospectus for 2020 – 2022
  4. A presentation from the Headteacher about the school

The school will also hold its usual Open Mornings in the autumn term for you to see the school in action. In previous years these have been very popular and, in many ways, a much better way to see the school in action.

The Open Morning tours will run from 9.00 a.m. – 10.45 a.m. on the dates below. The first hour will be a tour of the school and visits to lessons.  From 10.00 a.m. there will be a presentation from the Headteacher in the main hall with an opportunity for questions at the end.

The dates for these are:

Tuesday 15th September 2020

Wednesday 16th September 2020

Monday 28th September 2020

Thursday 1st October 2020

Friday 2nd October 2020

You will need to book in advance to join one of these tours, and we will open bookings on the first day back in September. Please phone the school (01727 799560) for a booking, asking for Mrs. Cracknell on reception.

Online Safety Event – Wednesday November 13th

/in , /by

We are committed to ensuring that students are safe when using the internet at Sandringham School.

Nonetheless, much of a child’s internet usage occurs outside of school, and we ask parents/carers to be interested, supportive and vigilant to their children’s usage. Within the curriculum at school students are educated about appropriate use of technologies, the dangers of misuse and how to report concerns. We make use of time in Computer Science lessons, Lifelong Learning (LL) and assemblies to ensure that the most up to date and relevant content is delivered to our students.

We are pleased to announce that on Wednesday 13th November we have secured an Online Safety Specialist from a company called Connected Minds to deliver an information session for parents/carers. This event will commence at 6:30pm in the Main Hall. We would welcome parents from any year group to attend. In order for us to secure an approximation of numbers, we would ask for you to complete a brief sign up via this link – www.bit.ly/32fgfgL.

Admission to Sandringham – Open Morning Tours

/in /by

We have arranged five Open Morning Tours where prospective families (parents and children) can walk the school during a normal day.

This gives you a great opportunity to see learning in action and experience the school ethos. We have guides to take you on tour and all classrooms are open for you to drop in and see what is going on. In our view, this is a powerful way to see the school in operation to help you make that important decision on where your children should be educated.

Tour dates are Wednesday 18th, Friday 20th, Monday 30th September, and Tuesday 1st, Friday 4th October 2019. Please contact the school reception to reserve a space (they are very popular).

Tours commence at 9.00 a.m from Reception and conclude at 10.45 a.m, Booking is essential.

We look forward to welcoming you then.
