Easter School- Easter School will be taking place on Monday 2 April, Tuesday 3 April, and Wednesday 4 April between 10am -2.30pm.

A timetable is now available on our website.

Illness in School- If your child becomes ill in school; they must in the first instance report this to their form tutor, who will then make the decision about whether they can go home. If their form tutor is unavailable they must see their Head of House/ Year or Mrs Hardman the Attendance Officer.

Form Tutors, Head of House/Year will then contact Pupil Reception to inform them that your child is ill and needs to go home. Pupils should not bypass this system by phoning or texting parents directly. These procedures have been put in place to ensure the safeguarding of all pupils

Term Dates- Our new term dates for 2012- 2013 are now available on the Wardle High School website.

Wardle Social- Wardle now has its own Facebook and Twitter page. This means that it is now easier for us to share school achievements and important messages such as snow days. Please find links on our website to these sites.
