A huge thanks across the GFM community for your commitment to ‘Staying Connected’
Throughout school and bubble closure, Tutors, year Offices and subject staff have done all they can to ‘stay connected’ (see below for details!)
Please continue to be in touch with staff to discuss how your daughter or son are; whether it is a success to share, or a worry to talk through please use the email addresses below to make contact with us.
Due to Covid 19 restrictions, visits to the school site are strictly by appointment only. The most efficient form of contact with staff in the school is by email and we hope the lists below are helpful for you.
The first point of contact for parents and carers is with your child’s Tutor (to share a success or a worry) or your child’s subject teachers (any learning questions.) Please see our ‘Contact us’ tab for relevant email addresses. Staff try their very best to respond to emails within 24 hours, and most enquiries can be dealt with using this method.
If you would like an appointment with a member of staff please contact them by email to make these arrangements

‘Staying connected’ as a strategy started in lockdown one and has become a feature of our work together!
It initially started to ensure each week every student had personal contact from their tutor – contact to see how students are, are they well? are they happy? do they need anything? We still had a number of students working with us onsite but ‘staying connected’ included everyone in the tutor group so everyone still felt part of a community.
It soon became much more: tutor group competitions, growing seeds, writing postcards, sending vid clips and photos to ‘stay connected.’
We started having teams of staff (covid safety trained) doing door stop visits to students who were feeling sad or worried or needed a boost. We had deliveries of book boxes, subject work on paper, subject books, art resources, food parcels, well being parcels, ‘acts of kindness.’
Between September and December Tutors carried on weekly ‘touch bases’ if there were bubble closures, subject teachers of bubble closures made sure they had at least weekly 1:1 contact and year offices worked with students and families who were finding online access difficult. we set up work deliveries alongside book boxes, resource boxes, food parcels and acts of kindness.
By the second lockdown and school closure we were better organised with our timetable for learning online, and clubs and societies online, so tutors focused on both ‘how are you’ AND ‘how is your learning online.’ We managed to secure devices for lots of students so they could use online, and continued deliveries and door stop visits as well as onsite provision for lots of students too.
Back in school, we are applying the same principle: at least weekly personalised contact for every student by their tutor and at least one other adult!

We recognise the value to the students of the family and the school working in partnership. The best way we can support your child is working with them alongside you. We know there will be times when we will call on your support, and times that you will need to call on our support. Working together we can support your child know to share successes and talk through worries or concerns.
A young person who talks things through, and seeks input and support from the adults around them is building their own self-confidence and self-belief, and the resilience and determination in order to enjoy life and manage the challenges that life brings.
We are working hard to ‘model’ for young people positivity, belief, high aspirations – so that we can support our young people become successful, happy and positive adults. When the adults around the young person are doing this whether it is at home, at school, through clubs or activities they are involved in out of school – the benefits to the young person are significant.
