Headteacher’s Welcome
Settlebeck School is a friendly, vibrant and fiercely ambitious school, where every student is treated as an individual. We are committed to making the difference for all our young people. We aim to ensure all our students are fully equipped with the skills and values to enable them to lead fulfilling adult lives and careers. We do this by focusing on their entitlement to the highest quality education which develops a love of learning.
Academic standards are our priority and we believe that exceptional results are a product of not only high quality teaching but also of the excellent care and support we offer all our students.
The ‘family feel’ of our small school offers security and a supportive environment where learning can be tailored to the individual needs of each one of our students.

Returning to school
Letter to parents:
Over the final few weeks of term we intend to provide every student, who has not yet returned to school, with the opportunity to attend school for one morning (9am – 12.30pm). The purpose of this will be to enable students to reconnect with school and to complete an online reading/spelling adaptive assessment which will enable us to begin to identify gaps in learning. This additional information will help us to plan ready for September. As we are still required to work within the current government guidance, students will be invited into school on a rota basis. We are seeking clarification from the Local Authority regarding the provision of transport.
Our risk assessment and frequently asked questions document are below and outline the control measures that are in place to reduce the transmission risk of COVID 19.
We will be in touch to inform you of the slot for your child to attend. Where possible, we would like all students to attend their given time slot but understand that there may be members of your family who are shielding or vulnerable. If this is the case, we will contact you to discuss an alternative.
Returning to school
As Settlebeck welcomes back Year 10 pupils please take the time to view our risk assessment and FAQ. If you have any questions or concerns not covered by these documents please feel free to contact school.
