  • Update - School Closed Until Tuesday 8th October 2024

    Wed 02 Oct 2024

    Dear all, 

     

    We have been working very hard to ensure that the site is in the best possible condition for our students to return safely.

     

    Unfortunately, we have had to delay the re-opening to all students until Tuesday 8th October. The deep clean needed has been significant and will require some additional time to complete, including to the equipment and site. We are also still working with the mechanics to ensure that the boiler is up and running.

     

    I apologise that this has resulted in an extra day's home learning, but appreciate the support and your understanding during what has been a very challenging time for the school. We will ensure that the teachers and staff team provide an additional day of home learning  for your child to access. 

     

    If you have any questions, then you can contact your child's teacher or a member of the leadership team. 


    I will be in contact again in the coming days with any further updates. 


    Many thanks
    Gary

  • School Closed - Monday 30th September and Tuesday 1st October 2024

    Fri 27 Sep 2024

    Dear all, 

     

    Thank you for your support and kind offers of help, following the flood yesterday. Unfortunately, the school site is still badly damaged and there is a lot of dirt and water and we do not have electricity in half of the school. 


    For this reason, we have had to make the difficult decision to CLOSE to students on Monday 30th September AND Tuesday 1st October. We are meeting with different agencies on Monday morning to look at a recovery plan and we hope to be able to update you all on the next steps early next week. 

     

    We currently have no phone lines on site (due to the electricity damage) and so please email enquiry@victoria.bham.sch.uk with any questions or issues. You can find the safeguarding leads mobile numbers on the school website (on Safeguarding pages). 

     

    We are all so upset with the damage to the classrooms and the impact that the closure has on our students and families. We are working hard to try and get a safe solution in place as soon as possible. 


    Many thanks
    Gary
    (Executive Headteacher)
