Year 8
Head of Year: Miss K McGee
I am very pleased to have this opportunity to write to you at the beginning of what will be another exciting and successful year here at Chadwell Heath Academy. I am delighted to welcome year 8 back after the summer break. I hope you all had an opportunity to spend some quality time with friends and family.
It is my privilege to continue to lead a promising cohort of pupils through their success at Chadwell Heath Academy, and I’m very excited to continue this journey through secondary school with such brilliant young people.
As a parent/guardian you also play an important role in the education of your child and your encouragement and involvement can help a child excel. I’m sure that you will agree that effective communication between home and school is one of the best ways to support students, and I hope that you will find the information below useful as we start the new year. In addition, there will be a range of inter-form events, non-uniform days, and other key dates. Please keep a keen eye on SIMS In-touch for additional information.

As a parent may I remind you that you can access details of all homework that has been set for your son/daughter via Show My Homework. If you are unable to login, please do let us know and we can send you the details.
If at any point you have queries regarding your son/daughters progress, please contact their subject teacher or form tutor in the first instance. However, please do not hesitate to contact me if you feel the matter should be passed directly to me and I will endeavour to get back to you as soon as possible.
May I take this opportunity to thank you for your on-going support to ensure the very best for your son/daughter. I hope they enjoy the new challenges this year and participate in all the school has to offer.
Yours faithfully
Miss K McGee
