Christmas comes early to The Gryphon School!
Staff and Governors at The Gryphon School were delighted to hear from the Department for Education that our temporary classrooms will be part of the Government’s School Rebuilding Programme next year.
Nicki Edwards, Headteacher, said “ this is wonderful news and comes at the end of a great year for the Gryphon with our best ever exam results and our excellent SIAMS inspection. Our students and staff work hard everyday and deserve to have the best facilities to work in – replacing our 25 year old “temporary” classrooms will make such a difference.”
Jo Mears, Chair of Governors, said “we would like to pay special tribute to our MP, Chris Loder who is an ex-student of The Gryphon. Chris has been a tremendous advocate for our bid. His determination to support us has made a real difference – he has encouraged us to be persistent over that past 3 years and has kept our cause in the spotlight in parliament. His old school is very grateful to him!”
