Progressive Masculinity Workshops

We are delighted to invite you to a one hour workshop at SWR in partnership with Progressive Masculinity Ltd. Progressive Masculinity is an educational company which specialises in helping boys and young men reconstruct attitudes towards masculinity, encouraging a healthy and open-minded understanding of their potential as young men. Please note that this session is open to parents regardless of the gender of their child.

The workshop will present evidence based information on a range of factors which affect the way they interpret masculinity, as well as providing supportive strategies for us to be able to help our boys and young men fulfil their potential. Areas covered include:

· ‘Lad culture’

· Masculinity in the digital world (social media, influencers etc)

· Attitudes towards education

· Effective communication

· Attitudes towards women and LGBTQ+

· Anger management, de-escalation and self-regulation

The workshop will take place at school on Tuesday January 10th in the school hall starting at 6pm. Please complete the online form (https://forms.office.com/e/FsBv45wnmc)  if you wish to attend.

If you would like more information on Progressive Masculinity and their work please visit their website at www.progressivemasculinity.co.uk

Carol Service Cancellation

To Students, parents, carers and friends of the school,
I hope you have enjoyed a magical wintery day in the snow.
It is with sadness that we have decided to cancel this year’s carol service, due to take place at St Marys’ church on Tuesday 13th December.
Following 3 years of absence, we were delighted at the prospect of reigniting this important school tradition and celebrating the special community that our schools serve. However, as always, our first priority has to be the health and safety of all in our school community, and those living in the local community.
Having spoken to the church warden at St Marys’ church this afternoon we have been advised that conditions are still not reliably safe in and around the church. This, alongside challenging levels of staff and student absence across all four schools means that the responsible choice is to not go ahead with the event.
We are looking forwards to celebrating the Christmas period as a whole school at St Marys’ church on Friday. Students who were due to perform at Tuesday’s carol service will be invited to perform there instead.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best wishes for a lovely Christmas
Mr Dillon
