✨🖋️ Spotlight Pupil 🖋️
This young man has truly amazed us with his outstanding progress in writing! He independently wrote this sentence about the farm, and it’s already at end-of-Reception level – and we’re only in February! We couldn’t be prouder of him, and as you can see in this picture, he’s just as proud of himself! A huge well done! 💜

REWARDS
Improving attendance is everyone’s business. The barriers to accessing education are wide and complex, both within and beyond the school gates, and are often specific to individual pupils and families. At Co-op Academy Hillside, we will do all we can to support your family and ensure our academy is safe, calm and a supportive environment for your child. Let’s celebrate everyone’s success together.
