NEW TEACHERS  STUDENT LEADERS

ago as we have had a hectic and positive start to term. Inspection Report from July which shows how much the school has improved in the last year. We were also pleased that so many students got great GCSE results and that our overall results improved in most subjects, in some cases by more than 20% at the the top grades. We will be building on these successes this year so that all students get the best opportunities and support. This is a great time to be part of the Cedar Mount community and we look forward to working with you all again this year.

Story of the week 

Student Leaders 2017 At the end of last year students at Cedar Mount were given the opportunity to apply for a position on the student leadership team. They had to apply and explain why they would be good leaders, how they would represent the views of each year group and how they would make this happen. After a rigorous selection process including formal interviews the team were selected and unveiled in a special assembly on Tuesday morning. Mr Mellen presented each member with a ‘special’ blazer and tie so they are easily recognisable in the academy. All are excellent role models and we’ll be following their journey over the next year so keep an eye on our social media pages and website for updates on their progress.
