This week

Given the extreme weather conditions forecast for the remainder of this week, we have decided to allow all students the choice of following attire for the next 3 days:
- their full their normal full school uniform with normal school shoes (jumper does not have to be worn); or
- their full Beckfoot School PE kit with trainers (hoodie does not have to be worn).
No other items of clothing will be permitted. 
For post -16 students, this will also include the wearing of smart shorts.
On Monday 29 June 2026, we will revert back to normal full school uniform with normal school shoes during the day.
Remember: we strongly recommend bringing plenty of water, sun protection, including sun cream and a hat/cap (to be worn whilst outside during breaktimes, PE lessons, and other outdoor activities), to help protect against the sun.
For outdoor PE lessons, students should come prepared for activity in the heat. Please note that sunglasses cannot be worn during PE, but suitable sun hats are encouraged when outside.
Please take care.

After school transport arrangements

I am writing to ask for your continued support at the end of the school day and to ensure that you are parking appropriately with full consideration for our neighbours and community. To help us, please ensure that you do not park on Wagon Lane under any circumstances. This is to ensure that buses can enter and exit the site safely and also to demonstrate respect for those residents who live there. Please also ensure that you only park in the designated spaces on Bradford Road in order to facilitate the smooth flow of traffic and the safety of all our students. Please do not use private roads near to school to sit and wait for students. Residents in those areas are quite rightly frustrated with a small number of parents/carers who are parking illegally.

The new Bradford Road layout means that there is considerably less parking in close proximity to the school than previously. Therefore, it is preferable, where possible, for students to either walk, use school buses or public transport to and from school.

Many thanks for your continued support and cooperation.

Mr Wade, Headteacher
