1. This assembly will review the success of the previous year before thinking about the New Year. We will consider the changes and opportunities for the New Year before discussing how to ensure everybody enjoys it and stays safe and healthy. The message from this Academy is to stay safe and enjoy your time but ‘Speak Up’ if required.

25. Which member of staff should you ask for help if you need it? If you need help during the Academy day you can ask the nearest adult to you for help Your Form Tutor should be the first adult at the Academy that you see each morning. If you have an issue speak to them as soon as you see them. If you find it hard to talk about your concern but want help, use the ‘Sharp system’ and Mrs Edwards our Child Protection Officer will help you as soon as possible.
