Academic achievement is also very important to us here at Endeavour. A key focus of the academy’s work will be to increase individual student’s self-worth, self-esteem, level of achievement and attendance whilst developing and promoting respect for themselves and others.
Here are a variety of numbers for external agencies and services that can offer support, guidance and advice while the school is closed over the summer.
In the case of an emergency call 999.
We hope you all have a fabulous, relaxing summer and we look forward to welcoming you all back in September.
