      Dear Parents and Carers

      We come to the end of the first Autumn half term - a term full of activity. It has been so lovely to see the Year 7 students settle into school and enjoy their learning.  Years 8 and 9 continue to make progress in their learning while Year 10 are beginning to understand the rigours of their qualifications.  Year 11 in particular have shown a positive attitude towards their last few months in Hope Valley College, engaging with their learning and the process of looking ahead to their next destination.

      Dear Parents and Carers 

      We come to the end of Week 7.  We hosted a tense football match earlier in the week, which went down to penalties, and our Key Stage 4 football team showed immense sportsmanship and real grit and determination. We also hosted a netball match on Wednesday and our student body again represented themselves impeccably.

      Dear Parents and Carers

      Week 6 has ended with a beautiful day of sunshine, one of those days that makes you feel glad to be in a school in the middle of the Peak District. We have come to the end of week's focus on attendance. Sending your young person to school is the most important thing you can do to help them in their future choices. If you feel your young person is finding this difficult, please contact school so that we can work together on this.

      Dear Parents and Carers

      We come to the end of another busy week in school. We have spent time this week supporting our Year 11 students with learning about revision and have said goodbye to our Danish counterparts for another year.  It is always such a fantastic experience for our students to make global connections and hopefully life-long friends.
