This week marks several important milestones that remind us how quickly our children grow and how significant each stage of their educational journey truly is.
Our Year 10 pupils have been spending valuable time at Salisbury Sixth Form, gaining insight into life beyond GCSEs. These experiences raise aspirations and help them picture the next stage of their education with growing confidence.
Meanwhile, Year 11 pupils have received their mock results – an essential moment to celebrate successes, identify improvements, and work with staff to prepare for their final examinations.
Across all year groups, we see themes of transition, growth, and responsibility. While pupils may see staff as symbols of authority and expectation, our role is to guide, support, and walk alongside pupils as they navigate their own journeys and meet expectations with effort, commitment and resilience.
As we reflect on this, a verse from the Bible offers a powerful reminder of balance between guidance and personal responsibility:
“In all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” — Proverbs 3:6
This speaks to the reassurance that guidance is always there, but it also reminds us that progress depends on the choices we make and the effort we invest. Faith, trust, and hard work must walk hand in hand.
Thank you, as always, for your ongoing support and partnership. Our mission, rooted in the Gospel, affirms that every child is created in God’s image, with gifts ready to be nurtured. Together, we will continue to guide our pupils with high expectations, care, and belief in their potential as they take each step forward.
