Message from the
Headteacher

This week, we celebrate Year 11's five-year journey to their GCSEs, and Year 13's seven-year journey to their A Level and vocational examinations, with their Year 11 and Year 13 Proms.

The experience of a return to formal examinations for these students has been a demanding one for them and their teachers and all staff who support them. Despite the impact of COVID-19 in the last two years, these students have been well prepared and set about these examinations with determination and resilience. This is testament to their hard work, aspiration, and motivation.  We wish them every success for results days in August.

As part of our registration activities, students have the opportunity to learn about and debate topics each week, using resources from VotesforSchools. This helps provide students with a wider understanding of current affairs, develops their empathy and kindness skills when considering sensitive issues, and also enables them to practise forming arguments and debating.

Furthermore, they have their voices heard as VotesforSchools shares the voting outcomes with a variety of organisations, including governments and charities.

Recently, students have discussed the topics 'Should the Homes for Ukraine scheme be for more refugees?' and 'Is it right that the Prime Minister kept his job after ‘partygate’?'

See the latest vote results below with our school's results indexed against the national votes.

The past month has been incredibly busy, in terms of extra-curricular events at Warlingham. Years 7 to 9 have been competing in House cricket, rounders, basketball and tug of war. Attendance from Chichester students at all events has been incredible and the house has been very successful. A massive thank you goes out to the sports captains and tutors who have helped organise and support these events.

As the academic year swiftly draws to an end, it felt the right time to let students and parents/carers know that I will be stepping down as Head of House of Johnson at the end of this academic year. Whilst I am not leaving the school and intend on remaining involved from my new role in the Learning Development Department, I am sad to leave this wonderful group of students that I have got to know and work with. I am incredibly proud of how hard they have all worked in incredibly challenging circumstances, but mostly because of the relentless kindness that so many of them demonstrate in everything that they do.
