Welcome back to a new year in English at the London Nautical School.
After achieving the best set of GCSE results in English ever, there is a lot to get excited about this year. In direct response to what we learned at the Town Meeting at the end of last year we have created 20 entirely new learning programmes and created a system of student choice for students in Years 7-10 that is unique and revolutionary. In the first week of the year, students at the London Nautical will be offered the chance to express their preferences as to which English programme they want to commit to for the year. There is a lot of information available via The Edutronic, the teachers themselves and the printed course booklets and we encourage you to think carefully about which programme will work best for you this year.
This week the teachers will be presenting the course options to the students. The deadline for the students to register their preferences is Sunday 7 September at 12:00pm, after which time the classes will be allocated ready for a formal beginning to the academic year on Monday 8 September.
The Edutronic continues as a digital hub of the department’s operations, and this year it has been expanded to include course information and homework for all English classes and teachers. We invite and encourage you to contact us at any time as well as to sign up to our Email List so we can keep you up to date.
We have new staff: Welcome to Mr Harris and Miss White who both join us as teachers of both English and Drama. Exponents of the existing team who continue their steadfast guidance of the London Nautical vision are Mr Curran, Mr North, Mr Price, Miss Correia-Pinto, and Mr Waugh
It’s going to be a big, busy year. Thanks for taking an interest in what we do!
Kind regards,
Christopher Waugh
Head of Department for English and Drama
The London Nautical School.
