A thank you from our headteacher, Catharine Wensley…

I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who has supported the Sir Peter Hall School journey towards our opening this September. It is was very exciting to see the windows being fitted when I visited the site last week and to meet the construction team who are doing an amazing job.

The local community have had to put up with road closures and building work on their doorstep and we are very grateful to them for their patience. We look forward to being very good neighbours once we open our doors.

We are proud to be members of Unity Schools Partnership – and this is not just a partnership in name. Sybil Andrews Academy and Abbots Green Primary Academy have hosted our staff interviews and helped us to recruit our founding team of staff.

So many great people have been interested in joining us to set up the new school – with an impressive range of skills and passion for educating young people with Social Emotional and Mental Health needs. I would like to thank everyone who has applied for roles and for the energy and enthusiasm shown during the recruitment process.

Thank you again to everyone for your help and support to date. We are looking forward to working together with you all, and our entire community, to provide an excellent education for our first intake of Sir Peter Hall stars.
