Welcome back for 2012-13

Well I can't believe that we are back to school; no let me correct that.  I can't believe that we are approaching the October half term already!.  Thank you for everything you are doing towards making Cheney so successful.  It has been an excellent start to the year.  The new uniform looks fantastic, behaviour is better than ever and we have gone a long way to cracking punctuality.  We could not do this without your efforts  so thank  you and keep reminding the students about our high expectations.

We are continuing to develop our learning and teaching; and to help us on this journey we have launched our latest initiative - the Agile Teaching Team.  The aim of the team is to provide high quality, bespoke CPD to any of the teaching staff that would like it.  It does not matter what stage of your career you are at, it is available to all.  All you have to do is apply using the Agile Teaching Team Request form on the useful  documents link and we will try to pair you up with an AST.  It is our aim to give support for a half term, and what support is given is designed and agreed between you and your AST.  We think it is a really exciting development and we hope that it is popular.
