Dear Parents and Carers

We have only completed 2 days of the academic year so far, but it has been such an uplifting experience to have our students back in school this week. Year 7 have made a fantastic start to their Hope Valley College careers, and I took the time to talk to all year groups on Thursday to share how excited I was to be their headteacher. It is such a privilege to lead this school and I have smiled constantly for the last two days. Hopefully our young people have enjoyed coming back to school as much as I have.
