Welcome to Aldridge School
Due to the ongoing restrictions imposed upon group gatherings our New Induction Evening for parents / carers scheduled for Thursday 10th June will not be going ahead.
Staff have been working hard to gather together all the information we would have normally given you to you at this evening and this is presented below.
Face to face interviews between parents / carers, student and a member of House staff will still be going ahead and your appointment date and time will have been detailed on the front of the envelope containing information from the school that you will have recently received.
Your House staff will be happy to answer any and all questions at your interview, but can also be contacted via email at the addresses below:
Barr House barr@aldridgeschool.org
Daniels House daniels@aldridgeschool.org
Linley House linley@aldridgeschool.org
Scott House scott@aldridgeschool.org
At this stage, if the ‘road-map’ out of lockdown proceeds uninterrupted we will still be holding our New Induction Day for students on Wednesday 7th July. Details of this day can be found in the pack of information you will have recently received.
