Life After Appleford

Applefords Pastoral team understands how important, exciting but sometimes challenging, moving on from Appleford can be for our Year 11’s.

So, in addition to including useful links for pupils and parents to support these next steps, we have also set up an outreach email.

dropin@appleford.wilts.sch.uk

We would love to hear all about our former pupils’ success and how wonderful they are finding the new adventure; but we would also like to offer support and advice to pupils that might not be finding it so easy.

The dedicated email address will be shared with current year 11 pupils in their Yr 11 Yearbook. The emails will be monitored by our pastoral team and information will then be passed onto any staff member whose input is asked for.
