KS4 Curriculum Evening We are looking forward to seeing Year 8 and 9 students and parents at our KS4 Curriculum Evening on Tuesday 7 th February. The evening runs from 6.00pm to 8.00pm. During the evening, you will be able to visit classrooms to view presentations on individual subjects, as well as a presentation in the main hall on the KS4 curriculum as a whole and the process for making choices. The subject presentations will be repeated all evening. The presentation in the main hall will be delivered at 6.15pm and again at 7.15pm. Please access the school building via the student entrance. Refreshments will be provided in the dining room by the Friends of Trinity School. On the evening parking will be available via gate 1 (bus parking and the car park behind this) and gate 2 (the Wilmot Dixon car park). Please remember that the purpose of the evening is for you to find out general information about subject content and assessment, as well as the choice process, rather than discussions about individual students and suitability for specific courses.

Parking Please can we ask parents not to drop off and pick up students in gate 2 or the Trinity staff car park. Some parents have been turning around and dropping students in front of gate 2, which is very dangerous. Gate 1, where the buses turn, is available for use for all parents. Please also be considerate to our local residents when stopping/parking in nearby roads. We have had several complaints regarding driveways being blocked.

KS4 Assembly During form times and in key stage 4 assembly these past two weeks, Year 9 and 10 students have been looking at British Values, with a specific focus on the values of tolerance and mutual respect. Key areas have been discussed and debated around the differences between extremist views and acts of terrorism. Our KS4 Photographers Design Museum Trip - Thursday 26 th January Last Thursday the Year 10 Product Design students and a group of KS3 Gifted and Talented Design and Technology students visited the brand new Design Museum in Kensington, an extraordinary piece of architecture and design in itself. While we there, we visited two exhibitions, the first was the Beazley Design of the Year exhibition, where students had the chance to learn about the best product and architectural designs of 2016 and then vote for their favourite. The second was called Designer, Maker, User; a display of a variety of iconic designs and the relationship between designer, maker and user. Many of the iconic designs that are studied and examined at GCSE were in the exhibition, giving students the opportunity to see manufacturing techniques and the products in the flesh.
