Welcome Back
For the first time since 20 March we were able to welcome students back to The Lenham School. It was lovely to see our Year 10 students and we made good progress in English, Mathematics and Science lessons as well as offering tutorial support. https://t.co/icybfRvko2
We have been listening...In response to your feed-back we have launched a series of video clips to assist with frequently asked questions about our digital tools and Virtual School.

I am delighted to be welcoming back students from years 10 and 12. We will be offering a reduced time-table to meet social distancing and safeguarding requirements.
Students intending to join lessons on Monday must have received a personal letter allocating them a teaching group. https://t.co/PTvarVbCJ5
One of the things that I really miss is the creativity of our students. However, with our Virtual School students have continued to find new ways to express and share their creative ideas.
Thank you James, Year 7... https://t.co/Uw3UYUnYPl
We are looking forward to welcoming our new Year 7 students to The Lenham School.

See you soon. https://t.co/sMI2sOHkBL

Many of our students want to express their thanks to the NHS and the vital work that they are doing. I have been asked by Daisy in year 8 to share her message to the NHS... https://t.co/LLYcPzGarQ
As we approach the week-end I thought that it would be useful to share the following resource as a reminder of important pieces of information:
https://t.co/Y8l8M1cOIG
Over the last few weeks everyone has, in their own way, tried to support the NHS...Mia-Lilly would like to share her iPad artwork and her appreciation of the NHS. https://t.co/h4R69kZhX9
On behalf of all teachers at The Lenham Virtual School I would like to thank students for their hard work and parents for their continuing support. We miss the daily buzz of a working school but your on-line work is keeping our spirits up

I hope that everyone managed to get going again after the Easter break... many teachers have made contact with their tutor groups and virtual classes have been well attended.
Students continue to create excellent work...

I hope that you had a safe and healthy Easter break.
With the recent announcement that the lockdown will be extended it is even more important that students continue to engage with school and their learning. https://t.co/YX2gUudUkY
As you are aware, all examinations this summer have been cancelled. Many Year 11 and 13 students will want to know how their grades will be awarded this year.
The following information was released by Ofqual earlier this week:

Just a quick reminder that every student has a slot on their time-table for physical exercise. Here we can see Olivia (Year 7) following the Joe Wicks daily workout:

Each day we are encouraging every student to take part in some form of independent activity. Perhaps to develop a new skill or hobby:
Finlay has been mastering his football skills... https://t.co/D3V8Qb7aPp
