A message from Allison -Nov/Dec

This month signified an important milestone for Brian Clarke. Our application window has now closed.

We have been overwhelmed with all the applications for places and are now working with the local authority to go through the allocation process ready to communicate our offer of places with parents/carers on the 23rd February 2022. A huge thank you to all those that have applied. We cannot wait to have our very first Year 7s through our doors in September 2022.

Networking

Again, I have been welcomed to numerous schools and have been discussing Brian Clarke with a number of community groups. I held a parent information session with year 5 and 6 parents at Burnley Brow and spoke to the two year 6 classes at Lyndhurst. It really is an absolute privilege to be able to speak to parents and discuss their hopes and aspirations for their children. I also got introduced to the wonderful work of the Women’s Chai Project and was given the opportunity to speak to the ladies about how Brian Clarke wants to add to the excellent school provision that already exists in Oldham.

Recruitment

The next couple of months will see the start of an intensive recruitment period where I will be appointing a founding team of exceptional staff who will be joining me on the journey of building a truly outstanding school for the community of Oldham. To support this process, I will be holding a recruitment webinar for both teaching and support staff on Thursday 13th January 4.30pm to 5.30pm.

Thank you

Can I take this opportunity to thank everyone for your continued support and wish everyone a very happy Christmas and restful New Year!
