It is always a bittersweet time of year when we say goodbye to pupils we have known for up to 8 years and welcome our new pupils for September. 

Leavers

Last Friday we held our Leavers Assembly where we heard some lovely messages from pupils who are moving onto the next stage of their education, training or employment. Particularly poignant were those pupils who bravely shared some of the struggles they have had compared to where they are now. We are proud of each and every one of you and hope you will come back, not only to the Prom in a couple of weeks, but to our Boomerang Club for as long as possible!

Advance Notice

If your child will be leaving Meadow in Summer 2025 then please be aware that the end of the year for them will be the last Friday of June 2025.

Transition Day - Welcome New Pupils!

Our Transition Day on Tuesday saw almost 60 new pupils joining us. I would like to thank all our current pupils for the welcome and support they gave to the new pupils. You all demonstrated the excellent standards of kindness, tolerance, compassion and respect we expect, and I know you made a huge difference to helping our new pupils have a great day.

Classroom Locations

To support the Local Authority, we have continued with the expansion of Meadow even though not all the buildings are ready yet!  To allow this to happen, we have a temporary double classroom unit coming on site over the summer. It also means that now, not all of our Pathway 1 classes fit on the downstairs corridor, with one to be located on the upstairs corridor and one of the KS5 groups in the temporary double unit. If your child is in Pathway 1 and tells you that they are located in a different part of the school, please don't worry! They are still with the Pathway 1 team, just located in a slightly different place.

End of Year

As we approach the last 2 1/2 weeks of this academic year, here are some important contact details should you need them over the summer or at any other time:

If a child is in immediate danger or at risk of immediate harm, you should contact the Police on 999

If you are concerned about a child you should share your concern with our local Children’s and Families Team by calling Hillingdon Children's Services/Stronger Families Hub on 01895 556006 or email StrongerFamiliesHub@hillingdon.gov.uk

You can also contact the NSPCC for advice on 0808 800 5000 or email help@NSPCC.org.uk

If you have non-urgent information about the safety or welfare of a child to share with the safeguarding team at Meadow High School, then please contact the relevant Safeguarding Designated Lead listed on our Safeguarding page, and below.   You can also email meadow@meadowhighschool.org

Best wishes for a lovely weekend.
