Letter from The Rotary Club of Harrogate Brigantes
‘Thank you to staff and students for supporting the Service of Remembrance. The children conducted themselves with dignity and were tremendous ambassadors of Rossett School’.

Email received from parents of a Year 11 student
‘What a fantastic report our son was given by all the staff at parents' evening. We are obviously delighted and proud of him, but what shone out loud and proud was the respect and admiration his teachers have for him. It is fair to say that our son has faced some hard challenges over the last couple of months alone, and his determination has followed through into his attitude and school work. What is very warming for us, as parents is the support in turn that your staff give to ensure that all grow and benefit.’
