We have created a back to school checklist which some people find helpful, you will also find the Parent Student Guide 2023 here which contains lots of information that you may need, including a reminder of the Uniform Guide that we expect Year 7 -11 students to adhere to – and don’t forget to check the FAQs on our website if you have any questions; https://ullswatercc.co.uk/faqs/
Lastly, a reminder that the times of the school day have changed from September students will be on site 8.55am – 3.25pm – five lessons a day, on a 2 week cycle.
