A message from the Principal and Head of Secondary Phase
Charlton is a very successful 11-16 comprehensive school. We are well established in our local community with a consistent record of high standards and are regularly oversubscribed. This is attributable to excellent examination results and acknowledges our caring and disciplined environment, combining formality with good relationships between adults and students.
From September, our school will work as part of a federation with Dothill Primary School forming ‘Dothill and Charlton Learning Community’. As a Learning Community both schools are under the joint Principalship of Mr N. Renshaw, with each school supported by a Head of Secondary and Head of Primary phase respectively. Our Learning Community's aim is to ensure that Charlton school works closely with all our partner primary schools to ensure the very best provision and continuity of learning or all.
The Charlton team and governors are committed to providing an exciting curriculum supported through a full range of extra curricular opportunities that allow students to realise their full academic and social potential. Our curriculum allows for the needs of all learners to be met as they progress through their five years in our care, providing opportunities for enrichment to develop wider aspects of learning.
Students are guided via a strong pastoral system, with experienced staff who support our effective learning environment. All students have form tutors who serve as academic mentors to track progress. Pastoral Managers offer further support and where required access external agencies and family support.
We recognise and appreciate our partnership with parents and endeavour to provide regular opportunities for parents to be involved in their child’s learning. There are two consultation days a year to allow a full review of progress as well as many other opportunities for involvement from home.
Please visit us at Charlton and see how our team can make a positive difference to your child’s learning and development.
| We look forward to meeting you! Mr N Renshaw (Principal) Mr L Tristham (Head of Secondary Phase) |  |
