Subject: Year 9 Curriculum Choices
Dear
Parents/Carers,
I hope that
you and your families are keeping safe and well in the current situation.
Whilst we are
closed for normal business at the moment, we still need to plan for next
academic year. As you know, the deadline which we have set for entering subject
choices for next year is Monday 30 March. In order to be able to construct the
curriculum and timetable for September, we are still asking you to keep to this
deadline please.
The enforced
cancellation of the Year 8 parents evening scheduled for Thursday evening of
this week undoubtedly makes the process of selecting subjects more difficult.
In the absence of the opportunity to meet with teachers face-to-face in the
curriculum areas where choices need to be made, there is the opportunity for
you to email staff where you have questions which relate to the subject
choices.
We have
published the list of teaching staff email addresses on our website and these
can be accessed through the following link: https://www.stbarts.co.uk/portals/parents/
If
you would like to ask more general questions about certain subject choices,
rather than specific ones relating to your own child’s progress this year, it
would be most appropriate to contact the Head of Faculty for this curriculum
area in the first instance, rather than your own child’s teacher. These
contacts are as follows:
· Modern Foreign Languages:
Mrs Wood – mwood@stbarts.co.uk
· Humanities (History &
Geography): Miss Devitt – ldevitt@stbarts.co.uk
· Expressive Arts (Art,
Dance, Drama, Music, Product Design, Textiles): Mrs Robertson
–grobertson@stbarts.co.uk
· Food: Mrs Eastman –
leastman@stbarts.co.uk
· Computing: Mr Cope -
ecope@stbarts.co.uk
If
you are having any difficulties completing the form online, please contact my
assistant Ms Hampson with a list of the subject choices your son/daughter has
made and we can enter these for you. Ms Hampson can be contacted at –
nhampson@stbarts.co.uk.
You
can of course also contact me if you have more general queries about this
process at – jsharpe@stbarts.co.uk.
Whilst
these are not the ideal circumstances in which we would like to conduct this
process, I hope this provides you with all the information you and your child
would need to make the best choices for Year 9.
Yours
faithfully,
Jeremy
Sharpe
Deputy
Headteacher
