Letter from the Head - 29 January 2021

In this episode: Help with broadband, and Good Morning HP

Dear all,

A short letter this week, but there are some great videos to watch at the bottom!

First though, the DfE have launched a scheme to give free mobile data to families where students:

  1. Do not have fixed broadband at home

  2. Cannot afford additional data for their devices

  3. Are experiencing disruption to their remote education

You can find more information here. If you meet all three criteria, you need to apply by filling in the form which was emailed to you today (we're not able to share the link publicly!).

We've had another great week online. I'd like to start by congratulating the students who won raffle prizes this week. Each student who has completed all of their lessons to a high standard was entered and the winners will be receiving a prize delivered to their home next week:

Evie R (Year 7), Grace K (Year 8), Paula O (Year 9), Niamh HW (Year 10), Dylan B (Year 11), Courtney T (Year 12), Alexandra V (Year 13)

Since my last letter, we've also released our first two episodes of Good Morning HP. We're planning to release a 20 minute show every Friday throughout lockdown, and we hope that you and your children will enjoy them as a fun way to keep up to date with our news over the coming months!

You can watch episode one  here, and episode two here - or look out for new episodes on our Instagram Page.

Best wishes, and have a great weekend!

Mr Farmbrough
