Headteacher’s Values Award Winner

The Headteacher’s Values Award was presented to Ellie Hughes, in Year 9.

Ellie was nominated by Miss Merckx, who wrote: “I’d like to nominate Ellie – both for her work in French throughout this year and also for her amazing support for other students.Ellie has been a star in French all the way through Year 9. She always goes above and beyond what she’s being asked to do and she’s making excellent progress with her work. She also makes a fantastic contribution to lessons and the group by participating very regularly, answering questions and suggesting learning strategies or snippets of information about French culture.

“Ellie has also been a wonderful friend to another student who has had a challenging year. Ellie always keeps an eye out for the student and has recently been helping her to manage her wheelchair, including helping to get both the student and her wheelchair on and off the bus and helping her to get from lesson to lesson. Ellie is always positive, polite and unassuming. She thoroughly deserves recognition for being so conscientious and determined, but especially for being so lovely and supportive towards others.”
