Rossett News Update - 11th September 2026

Thank You for a Strong Start!

As we complete the first full week of the new academic year, we would like to thank our students and families for helping us have a positive and purposeful start to term.

It has been fantastic to see:

  • High standards of school uniform, with the vast majority of students taking pride in their appearance and representing the school exceptionally well.

  • Students arriving ready to learn and engaging positively in lessons from day one.

  • Purposeful learning with students engaged from the very first lesson.

  • Warm and welcoming conversations taking place across the school community.

We have been delighted to have awarded over 21,500 positive points to students this week. Attendance has also been very strong, let's keep up the great start as we move through the term. If a child is absent, we must be told the reason why on the first day of absence, and each subsequent day, before 8.30am. You can contact school by calling the Absence Line on 01423 564444 (option 2). For helpful advice and guidance on when to children should be kept off school, please visit the NHS website here 

A special mention must go to our students new to school. You have already shown great resilience in navigating your way around your new school but have done it with great positivity! 

The start of term sets the tone for the year ahead, and the support you have provided at home has played an important part in ensuring that students have returned ready to learn, succeed and make the most of every opportunity available to them.

We hope everyone has a good rest this weekend ready to do it all again next week!

School Sweatshirts

Our uniform supplier, Rawcliffes, has informed us that a small batch of school V-neck sweatshirts was supplied over the summer with the embroidered school logo positioned too far towards the sleeve. As a result, the logo may not be clearly visible when the sweatshirt is being worn.

If your child has a sweatshirt affected by this issue, please contact Rawcliffes directly and they will be happy to arrange a replacement.
