Parents/Carers of Year 10 and 11 students, we are hosting our post-16 Providers event on Tuesday 13 October 2026. Students and their families will be able to speak to a number of local colleges and sixth-forms to get advice on their next steps after Five Acres High School.

It's been incredible to see Year 7's attendance. On Wednesday last week we had 100% attendance, which is amazing at this point in the term. We have not had a day when Y7 attendance has slipped below 96%. Thank you so much for the support of parents/carers for your support.

We have made some improvements to our library, students can now search our stock for a book they would like to borrow, reserve online and pop in to collect it.
