End of Term Message from Mr Brown

Dear Parents, Carers

As always seems the case, the Spring term has flown by and students can now have a well-deserved

break. We have had a very successful term both academically and with extra-curricular activities. Visitors

to the school have commented very positively on the attitudes to learning in classrooms and our ‘One Grade Up’ March Mocks Challenge has been taken seriously by Year 11 and Year 13. For these two year groups of course, the Easter break is extremely important preparation time for the summer and I would

ask parents of those students to support their studies and ensure their children attend revision sessions in

the Easter holidays and after school when we return.

It is fantastic to report that 37 students met the Achievement Points Challenge for this half term. A high

points total was needed and I was delighted to present certificates to those students this morning. Their

names appear in the bulletin, well done to them. As another part of this half-termly challenge, we asked

all students to do at least one thing every day to make our school a better place. There were some

outstanding nominations for environmental work in particular. Next term I will be asking parents to

contribute by asking you to nominate your child for achievement points if he or she is involved in some

great citizenship work/helping others outside of school. Please look out for further details.

There has been a huge amount of sporting success this term and, most significantly, further increasing

participation in the activities put on by the PE Department. This rivals any provision in any school and

participation rates are excellent. We have celebrated a number of events such as World Book Day and

International Women’s Day and held a very successful Arts Evening which I know parents and students

really enjoyed.

Staff put on many other enrichment activities and trips and the opportunities that KES students have taken

advantage of during the term are many and varied. This is indeed a special place.

I have been delighted to show a number of parents around the school in the past few weeks and if you

would like a tour, please do contact me (Lloyd.Brown@kesacademy.co.uk). It is a privilege to be able to

walk round each day and see the good work going on. Do join me if you have some time.

The summer term begins on Tuesday 18th April for students at 8.35am. Please ensure students are ready

for the new term with the correct uniform and equipment.

I wish you and your families a pleasant Easter break and many thanks as ever for your support this term.

Lloyd Brown

Head of School

Year 7 – Mrs Stonach

As we end another term, I would like to thank the pupils and parents for their hard work, enthusiasm and

support. I have seen how well the pupils have settled into high school and revelled in the challenges that

were presented to them. I am proud of how well they have all done and I know that many of you will be

pleased with their efforts at the forthcoming parents evening on 27th April. I will be there on the evening to

discuss any worries that you have regarding attendance and behaviour, Ms Randall will also be available

to talk about any academic concerns that you may have. Please come and have a chat on the night.

Attendance this year has been great. Despite the nasty bugs, most pupils have battled on and have

attended school as much as possible. The form this term with the best attendance is 7W with a combined

attendance of 97% - what a fantastic effort and well done to them.

This term we have seen many pupils taking part in sporting events, the year 7 Rugby, Netball, Football

and Hockey teams have all taken part in various games and have made great ambassadors when

representing KESA. We have also had pupils attending Maths challenges as well as various activity days

including the recent academic day in school.

This term we have also seen the introduction of PRIDE Awards, these are issued each Tuesday in

assembly to pupils who have been nominated by Teachers for their outstanding contributions. Lists of

these prize winners have featured in each issue of parent mail.

This week 3 awards were given to pupils with 100% attendance this term, in total there were 66 pupils with

100% attendance, what an achievement! The 2 pupils who have won a £10 cinema voucher and a bag of

popcorn were Callum Jones and Lukrecija Ridikaite. The big prize of a £20 Nandos voucher went to Jack

Corden – we hope you all have a fab time in celebrating your outstanding attendance!

Pupils in year 7 have been given the challenge to complete a diploma award in their tutor time. I’m sure that they would be happy to let you know how they are getting on. The diploma is both academic and non

academic and there are frequent opportunities for pupils to add points to their diploma. I am really pleased

to say that 2 pupils have completed the challenge already; Simeon Vonk and Tyler Pegg have

successfully gained their diploma award half way through the year – what an outstanding effort!

This leaves me to wish you all a fantastic Easter break and I will see the pupils back on Tuesday 18th April.

Year 8 – Mrs Lees Another term is finished; time really does fly! Students are now two thirds of the way through Year 8 and we can be very proud of the progress they are making. The most recent reports have motivated students to push themselves to achieve their very best and I see a strong work ethic growing amongst the cohort. I wish all students and their families/carers a very restful and happy holiday and I look forward to moving into their final term with them as Year 8 students. Achievement – Year 8 have amassed a whopping 4,895 points this week, hitting a total 33,376 achievement points since February half term! Our Top 10 Achievers are named below. Attendance for this half term: 8A are top of the attendance leader board at 96%. 71 Students have achieved 100% attendance this half term and were entered into our raffle to win £15 Nandos voucher. Mary-Ann Booker was our winner! A £10 cinema voucher was awarded to the student with most improved attendance. Uniform – We will begin the new term after Easter with uniform checks. Please can you support your son/daughter to wear correct uniform at all times, most students are always well presented and wear their uniform with pride but there are always a small number of uniform issues and parents will be contacted and asked to bring correct uniform into school for these students.

Year 9 – Mrs Cole

I am really proud of Year 9 for having another successful term, just one more to go before transition into

Year 10! Again this week I have popped in to see some great work taking place in lessons. The Year 9

rugby team really impressed me last Thursday at West Norfolk Rugby Club when they played Downham

Market Academy for the County Cup final plate; although they narrowly lost 19-17 they played well as a

team. I am sure they will grow as a team and enjoy much success.

Attendance:-

Well done to 9X with 97.6% attendance last week.

Well done to Tristan Anton - the winner of the Nandos draw.

Uniform:-

Please ensure, when we return after Easter, that all students are in the correct uniform – see school

website for a reminder. If your child is not conforming to our uniform policy, please send a note in with

them, this will be valid for 2 days. We now have an equipment shop open every break time outside the

Year 7 office, no excuses for not having all the equipment needed for each lesson, most items are just

10p.

Overall punctuality and attendance are improving for Year 9 – please encourage your children to be in

school on time (8.35am at the latest) and present every day, they will reap the benefits when the time

comes to sitting their exams.

Year 10 – Mr Waring Year 10 overall attendance once again climbed last week which is a real positive to start this parent bulletin. Top form class was a class that actually finished 7th the previous week, improving their attendance by 5% and finishing in top spot with 98.4%, which is an excellent achievement by form class 10D. Well done everybody in that class. 10W achieved a very credible second place achieving 96.8%. Year 10 once again smash their previous best by gaining no fewer than 6210 positive achievement points which is very impressive and shows how as a year group, they are showing such positivity in line with our school ethos. One very proud Head of Year, as you should be as their parents. Our top student for this week had to share top spot with 2 other students last week, but this week he has gone that extra mile to ensure he is top for positive achievement points. This week’s award goes to Daniel Pereira, well done Daniel. Keep up the good work. Jenifer Melton was just pipped into second place but what a valiant effort, well done Jenifer. So who was our most positive form class this week? I can tell you it was not 10A who dropped down into joint second with 10K. Making our winners this week, with an impressive 875 positive achievement points, 10W, congratulations to all in that team! Overall results are; 10A 830 10D 745 10E 540 10G 815 10K 830 10N 755 10R 820 10W 875 Congratulations to KESA Girls U15 Hockey squad who have recently been crowned Norfolk Emerging Schools Hockey Cup winners. Year 10 squad winners include, Lauren Noble, Ellie Burt, Aoife McGovern, Amy Thompson and Ellie Bower, congratulations ladies another great achievement. We have 4 language stars to congratulate this week; they are Dan Aviss 10R, Katelyn Hall 10D, Erin Taylor 10W and Gabriele Deacon Mendez 10E. Well done guys, very impressive and pleasing to see so many of the year group doing well in languages. Sports starts of the week, I am very pleased to report went to Lily Smith, Erin Taylor and Paisley Burch, well done all of you. At the beginning of each school term, Mr Brown sets all students a challenge that they will be rewarded for if they actually achieve it. This term that challenge was a tough one. Students needed to achieve 315 positive achievement points, 100% attendance for the term and zero negative behaviour points. I am very pleased and very proud to announce that, despite this being a tough challenge, four of our year 10 students achieved it. They are, Jenifer Melton 10N, Katelyn Hall 10D, Dan Aviss 10R, Chloe Appleby 10E. What an amazing achievement you and your parents should be truly proud of you, well done to you all! Well that is it for another term. It just leaves me to wish you and your families a happy Easter on behalf of all the year 10 team and will see students back on Tuesday 18th April at 08.35am.

Year 11 – Mrs Wright

It has been a successful half term with GCSE mocks sat and copious amounts of revision taking place. By

now all Year 11’s should have a copy of their GCSE exam timetable. Any student who has not collected their exam timetable should either come to see me for a copy in the Year 11 office or to Mrs Stepien, the

exams officer.

The top 10 Year 11 achievement award winners are:-

Simbrashe Chizungwa

Bethan Willey

Agnieszka Maciak

Michael Smith

Jesscia Harden

Tyrese Bond

Karolina Rimkute

Lucy Jordan

Shelby Carroll

This week’s PRIDE awards go to:- We think and act positively - Simbrashe Chizungwa

We respect one another – Michael Smith

We strive to improve – Karolina Rimkute

We all create a great place to learn - Shelby Carroll

Well done to all those students.

Orders for Year 11 hoodies has now closed and the order been placed with the printing company. Prom

tickets will be on sale until the 28th April. That leaves 2 weeks after the holidays for students to buy their

tickets. These are available from Mr Waring and Mrs Stonach. Vivo’s can be used against the price of the

ticket. Tickets are £25.

At long last this week we have had the ‘grand shaving’ of Mr Hogger’s beard. A large crowd of students arrived in the hall during break on Tuesday to see Mr Hogger divested of his facial forest. David Brivinskas

was the ‘lucky’ student to take the first cut of Mr Hogger’s beard. Mr Altunok, husband of Mrs Altunok,

psychology teacher, owns a barbers shop in town and came to school to perform the deed. I have to say

Mr Hogger looks much younger and in the process helped to raise over £300 for the Year 11 prom fund.

Many thanks go to Mr Hogger for being such a good sport.

During the Easter holidays there are planned interventions in a variety of subjects most days. Students

have had the opportunity to view a power point this week regarding this. I hope students take advantage

of this and have written down the times and dates of the interventions of subjects they feel they need to

attend. I want to thank staff who have given up some of their holiday so that this extra intervention can

take place. All details on these sessions can be found on our website, along with revision resources.

This just leaves me to wish you all a very happy Easter holiday.

Happy Hogger before…….

……..and after!

Sixth Form News

National Apprenticeship Roadshow and Post Sixth Form Advice and Guidance

As part of our commitment to providing all our students with the best possible information and guidance in

preparation for life after sixth form we took 35 students to National Apprenticeship roadshow at Milton

Keynes on the 13th March. Students had the chance to meet over 100 apprenticeship providers and

speak to current apprenticeship students. Feedback from the event has been very positive and we hope

students found the event useful.

Students should also be aware that Mr Collison is available every three weeks to offer advice regarding

careers and opportunities post sixth form. Mr Collison has a wealth of experience and a number of useful

contacts and it is important that if students are unsure of their next step after sixth form they make use of

this resource. He is next in school on April 25th and appointments can be booked on the sheet outside the

sixth form office.

Diploma Day Friday 24th March

Sixth Form Students took part in a variety of excellent activities last Friday. PC Bolderstone delivered an

extremely powerful presentation about healthy relationships which was followed up with workshops where

students had the opportunity to discuss what they had seen. There were sessions on Mindfulness where

students were taught a variety of relaxation techniques that we hope they will find useful in preparation for

their upcoming exams. There were also sessions on Fundamental British Values where students were

given the opportunity to explore and discuss what it means to be British.

Students also took part in an ‘Impact’ presentation on driver safety. This involved students being talked through a demonstration of what happens on the scene of a road traffic accident from the police arriving,

the fire crew cutting the driver out of the crashed vehicle and the ambulance services removing the driver

and transferring them to an ambulance. What was particularly effective was that students were able to

hear a first-hand account from a young driver who had been involved in a serious car crash and the effect

that this has had on his life.

Subject Support

Teachers are running a number of extra sessions for students to support them with their studies. These

run throughout term time but there are also some sessions happening during the Easter break. Sessions

are advertised in the sixth form area and listed on our website here.

Enrichment programme

House news At the end of our second half term, nearly every child in the school has now taken part in an event. Well done to those of you who regularly take part. The results are changing and I know Mr Denton will be very pleased that GW have finally moved out of their 3rd place position. Well done GW! There really still is everything to play for so please encourage your child to support their house and make the most of the opportunities available to them. April Junior Dodgeball – 18th April Inters Dodgeball – 21st April Also look out for a new event 'Capture the Flag' (dates to be confirmed)

NSPCC board games On Friday we supported the NSPCC by holding a board games event in the hall during lunch time. Students donated 50p to play games and have squash and a biscuit. A brilliant term, with our students doing some really amazing things. Have a great Easter everyone.
