A positive start to the year for OA-North View pupils

This half term has been filled with success at OA-North View, with pupils demonstrating impressive progress in their learning, attendance and personal development.

We have been especially proud of our new Year 7 pupils, who have settled exceptionally well into school life, building positive relationships with staff and peers, and engaging confidently with the curriculum.

A number of pupils in Years 9 and 10 are now benefiting from a range of learning experiences offered by Circles Farm, Rally Sport and U-turnships. Through these programmes, they are developing confidence, resilience and practical skills while exploring future career aspirations. These opportunities provide valuable real-world experiences and reflect our commitment to preparing pupils for successful futures in education, employment and life.

To mark the end of a successful first half term, pupils enjoyed a pumpkin-picking trip to Scott's of Southend and had a fantastic time.

Well done to pupils and staff for such a positive start to the academic year!
