Open Evening:

We would like to thank everyone involved in Open Evening on Tuesday 1 October and to prospective parents/carers and pupils for making the evening such a success.

Year 6 Day/Staff Training Day/Year 7 Consultation Day and Evening:

On Monday 7 October Hollingworth will be closed for most pupils, as we are holding our Year 6 Open Day and Year 7 Consultation Day and Evening. The Year 6 pupils from local primary schools will be spending the day with us, working within different departments to get a feel for life at Hollingworth. For pupils in Years 7, 8, 9 and 10 the school will be closed, although Year 7 pupils will be expected to attend with their parents/carers for their consultation appointment only. All Year 11 pupils studying GCSE Science sets 1, 2 and 3, Additional Science and Triple Science will be in to complete vital controlled assessments. Normal start and finish times will apply. Pupils in Year 11 studying BTEC Science do not need to attend.

School will be open to all pupils as normal on Tuesday 8 October.
