The Character Newsletter November 2026
Wow! What an incredibly busy and exciting first term we have had at Wrotham School!
Firstly, it has been an absolute pleasure to welcome all our students back into school and, most importantly, into our wonderful new building. It is a genuine joy to finally have a school environment that our students can be proud of and one that they truly deserve. The respect our students have shown for their new surroundings has not gone unnoticed, and I feel an enormous sense of pride walking around a school that feels so calm and focused on learning.
The term was filled with achievements, successes and fantastic opportunities, many of which you will read about in our newsletter. Our staff continue to go above and beyond to ensure that our students experience everything that secondary school has to offer. I have been particularly proud of our new Year 7 students, who have embraced secondary school life with enthusiasm and confidence.
Another highlight this term was being able to open our doors for our first official Open Evening in many years! We welcomed over 300 Year 5 and Year 6 pupils and their families, who had the opportunity to explore our fantastic new facilities and experience everything Wrotham School has to offer. We are equally excited to welcome our Year 11 students and their families to our Sixth Form Open Evening on Thursday 12th November.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all our parents and carers for your continued support. Working together, maintaining high expectations and ensuring that our children make the most of every opportunity is what makes our school community so special. As we look ahead to Term 2, we have another exciting and busy few weeks planned, with plenty of events and celebrations as we approach Christmas.
Thank you to our students, staff and families for such a positive start to the academic year. I am incredibly proud of what we are building together at Wrotham School, and I look forward to all that lies ahead.
