Year 9

Head of Year: Miss S Hand

We would like to take this opportunity to welcome you back after the summer – we hope you all had a lovely break! It is our privilege to continue to lead a promising cohort of pupils in Year 9. The Year Group continues to embrace the values and ethos of Chadwell Heath Academy, which they should be incredibly proud of, as they approach an exciting year which includes taking their GCSE options.

We are excited to see each and every member of the Year Group take full advantage of every opportunity provided to them, overcome challenges that come their way and cultivate healthy relationships with both their peers and staff. This approach to their life at school must be underpinned by them putting in their very best effort, upholding respect for one another and their education, and maintaining the positive reputation they have already built for themselves over the past two years with us.

As a parent/carer you play a key role in the education of your child. Your encouragement and support will help your child to excel during their time with us. We welcome your support in communicating our standards and expectations, and thank you for that support. Your child’s Planner plays a key role in the organisation of their studies and homework specifically, and we thank you in advance for your support in signing your child’s Planner each week. Many of you have also signed up to view your child’s homework on Show My Homework, which is an additional method by which you may offer your support.

Throughout the year there will be a range of inter-form events, non-uniform days and other key dates. Please keep a keen eye on SIMS In-touch for additional information. Below you can find key dates for the academic year ahead.

We are looking forward to the Year Group maintaining the high standards which they have already set for themselves. It is with great pleasure that we continue to support a Year Group that demonstrate good character, aspiration and resilience.

Should you have concerns please do not hesitate to contact us, and we will be happy to help.
