Congratulations to all our students for their exam results following all their hard work. Your Year 13 and Year 11 results make us very proud

My reflections on the women who have influenced my younger self, and those who continue to do so today.

I would like to thank Mrs Massey for being guest writer on the Headteacher’s blog!  She has been working hard on developing STRIPE skills and metacognition with our students across the school.  The STRIPE Journal plays an important role in this work – here, Mrs Massey explains why.

As a teacher in a secondary school these underpin many of the struggles that I see in the classroom and beyond

Sometimes the simplest plans are the best.

…my friend, it’s time to be more kind. How do you start the year after a summer which has seen such discord? Kindness is surely

To our wonderful JTFS Community, I would like to thank you all for your support during what has been an incredibly challenging term at JTFS.

January is often a time for reflection as we look back over the previous year and ahead to what is to come.

My presentation to staff and students as we started term last week, was inspired by a visit to Northumberland over the summer which reminded me of a couple of blogs I had read some time ago.

Over the last couple of weeks, we have been advertising and then interviewing for the Student Leadership Team at JTFS.
