AN INSIGHT INTO OUR

Academy newsletters

To share

News and information about our Academy, and the achievements of our students

Our Academy Newsletters are issued every week and published on the academy website for ease of access.

These include a BBS Weekly Bulletin, featuring a Principal’s message alongside key updates and highlights for the wider BBS community. In addition, we provide year group-specific bulletins, offering parents and carers tailored information relevant to their child’s stage of learning, as well as a dedicated Careers Bulletin with up-to-date opportunities, work experience, and pathways information.

The purpose of these newsletters is to keep families informed about current events, celebrate the achievements of our young people, and share the many successes taking place across the academy. The latest editions can be found in the section below.
