Dear Parents/Carers,
Thank you very much for all your support over the last few months. I appreciate things have been less than straightforward for many of you, and the lockdown situation went on longer than any of us wanted it to, albeit for the right reasons to keep us safe.
Just to update you on staffing arrangements for September – again I realise that by now your child would be meeting their new teacher and classmates, and many of you will be wondering who this will be. Just to reassure you that you will be informed of your child's new class teacher over the next few days.
There are a number of staff leaving our school at the end of the academic year and I am sure that you will join me in thanking them for all the hard work and commitment they have shown to the school.
Mrs Aylott, who has been on maternity leave, has secured a part time position at a new school so that she can spend more time with her daughter. Good luck Mrs Aylott!
Miss Sharma is relocating, and has secured a new teaching position in London. Again, we wish her well at her new school.
Mrs Patton has decided to pursue a new career, and we have made the appointment of Miss Young as our Pastoral and Attendance Manager.
There are also some staff who will be beginning an exciting new stage in their lives. Mrs Carroll and Miss Wright are due to start their maternity leave over the summer. We look forward to them returning to Marland Hill soon and wish them good luck with their forthcoming new arrivals!
We will also be joined by a new member of the support staff [as well as the new teachers detailed below] – Mrs Midgely will be joining us as a TA3.
Please find below the confirmation of the teaching staff for the next academic year 2020-2021.
