Year 11
Following the conclusion of the recent election and a series of interviews on Wednesday, I am pleased to announce the committee for the next academic year.
The committee will officially take up their positions in September, but will be doing some work towards next year in the coming weeks, including their first full committee meeting next Wednesday after school.
Thanks once again to all students that applied and took part in the selection process and thanks to all students and staff for their support.
Our year 10, 11 and 6th form students have been invited to join with RMS students on 8th March to meet with a host of employers including lawyers, doctors, scientists and engineers, business men and women, representatives from universities and so much more. No registration required please just visit on the 8th
Thank you so much for all your generosity. Many of our school families are themselves under considerable financial pressure, especially at this time of year, so it really is profound generosity we see in the pictures below of our very-own Santa-Sleigh (mini-bus).
For some families, the gifts donated by JOA are the only ones that they will receive this Christmas.
Well done and sincere thanks to everyone who contributed!
Join Miss Godwin and Mr Woollatt who are both aiming for the Best Staff Christmas Jumper” prize.
There will also be awards for “Best Student Christmas Jumper” and “Most Christmassy Form”.

Haven’t got a Christmas Jumper? Not a problem. Customise your own.
Really too cool for school/ still don’t want to wear the jumper? Donate your £1 anyway…
Every single pound collected will go directly to the children of Udayan.
Congratulations to all our pupils on a fantastic set of examinations results this year.
The overall pass rate at GCSE has risen for the fourth consecutive year to our best ever figure of 76% for pupils gaining 5 or more A*C grades including English and maths.
The average points score has also risen significantly from 323 in 2014 to 382 this year and is a reflection of the hard work and dedication from our pupils and staff throughout KS4.
Pass rates for English (88% A*C) and Maths (88% A*C) have also seen a significant rise whilst the following students are a sample of the many who have gained excellent individual results, well done to everyone.
