Week Two...
... and the foundations of the new sixth form building are nearly completed. We have organised some year 11 students to take regular / weekly photographs of the build until it is finished. I will then create a short film from these photographs so that we will have an 'instant' building appearing on site! I think that will look amazing as a record of the historic event of the opening of the Sixth Form. The site Manager, Mr James Batty, is working hard overseeing the work and is very clearly running a tight and efficient project. The sight of the wealth of machinery on the premises has been very interesting.
Year 11 students are currently completing 'intentions' forms for me so that I can ensure, as far as possible, that we are offering the right courses for the students. There seems to be a great deal of interest in a potential dress code for the sixth form - this should be agreed with students and staff and I anticipate that it will be acceptable to all of us! ... it will certainly not be a uniform!
I know we don't want a uniform for the new 6th form, but can we have a dress code which seeks to control the competitive fashion parade? I've just had to spend a small fortune on my daughter's wardrobe for her move to a new 6th form, and I'm sure a lot of parents won't want to do that at Cooper.
