Year 8

Published: 15-09-2023

Dear Parents and Carers of Year 8 Students,

I am the Head of Year 8, Miss Richardson. Our class of 2027 students have had a tremendous start to BHCS and I have enjoyed getting to know them, and you as parents/carers, over the last academic year. Our year group continues to impress with their relentless thirst for knowledge, positivity and increasing maturity - and I continue to enjoy getting to know all 256 students in the year group.

As we now head into our 2nd year at BHCS, our focus begins to change slightly as we now look towards the exciting prospect of Guided Choices!

Year 8 is a year where students are able to fully immerse themselves into the culture and ethos of the school, now that the transition phase is over. As such, I encourage all students to attend as many extra-curricular clubs as possible in year 8, as this will have an immeasurably positive impact on social, emotional and physical health.

I firmly believe that we have a very special year group in the Class of 2027 cohort - I look forward to continuing my work with both the students and you as parents/carers, to ensure the best possible outcomes in Year 11. I'm looking forward to seeing the progress we will make over the coming academic year.bsite
