Thank you to all our students and their families
16th July 2021
Dear Parents, Carers and Families,
As we approach the end of a second academic year of unprecedented challenges for education due to COVID-19, I wanted to write to you to offer my most sincere thank you for the support you have shown your schools during the last 18 months.
It is with an incredible sense of pride that I recognise the determined, dignified, and courageous way in which our Trust Headteachers, Senior Leaders and their staff have met the impossible demands of the national crisis. Their commitment to the health, safety, and wellbeing of all their children and young people has been remarkable. This term has proved to be relentless and incredibly demanding for both schools and families as infection rates, staff and pupil absences have dramatically increased in our region. This, coupled with the challenges of Teacher/Centre Assessed Grading in our secondary schools has led to a term like no other.
Indeed, it is with the support of our Parents in Partnership groups, Parent Teacher Forums and the support of our Trustees and Local Governing Bodies we have been able to focus on achieving the very best we can for our children and young people. The breadth of curriculum, wide range of educational opportunities and sharp focus on continued school improvement has been widely celebrated week to week on our school’s social media, websites, and wider communication.
We are delighted that schools across Northern Star Academies Trust are this year offering Summer School Provision and/or are signposting to the provision on offer across the community and district. In readiness for the next academic year please expect detailed communication from your Headteachers once we are in receipt of finalised Government guidelines.
I very much hope you have a safe and restful summer, free from the disruption of the pandemic.
With grateful thanks,
Jenn Plews
Chief Executive Officer
Department for Education: Guidance for parents and carers

Another great session at the allotment for our Reception children this afternoon, where we met our resident hens and cockerel. We also found that rhubarb leaves make great umbrellas!#learningoutsidetheclassroom #featheredfriends #noeggstoday https://t.co/NGjTxDMu1H

Looking forward to developing further the MAT SEND group with @simontanner_SEN. We had over 30 MAT SEND leaders join us last year & the need is growing - particularly post Covid. Drop us a line if you are the #SEND Strategic Lead for your Trust & looking for CPD/networking opps.

We’ve got a jam packed week ahead at Greatwood! Alongside our curriculum offer this week we have: horse riding, brass lessons, swimming, rugby, tree identification in Skipton woods and a walk up Buckden Pike. Are there enough hours to fit it all in? 🧐 @N_StarAT https://t.co/hCCHeLlDAH

It’s fantastic to have our new community hub in use already this week - hosting the brilliant FiiT Like a Girl and Chatsworth Dance already. We’re excited to be kitting out the community grocery next week and hosting the reopening of the New Park Heritage Centre next Saturday!
