On Thursday, Crew White used Academic Crew time to analyse their latest snapshot data and reflect on their HoWLs. It was great to see them comparing their awarded HoWLs against a rubric to identify areas for improvement and shape their new pledges. Parents have now received snapshot reports at home, and Crew White should be able to confidently articulate their own learning narrative around this — a smart, focused approach to leading their learning.
Winning Streaks and Leadership Peaks! It has been another standout week for our PE department. On Wednesday, our Year 7 and 8 Girls Footballers dominated the pitch at Hayfield. They secured a massive 9-0 victory against Don Valley, followed by a gritty 0-0 draw against the hosts. It was a masterclass in both clinical finishing and rock-solid defending!
On Thursday, our Year 9 Sports Leaders took charge, mentoring younger students during a primary school basketball event. Their leadership and maturity were a credit to the school—we can’t wait to see them in action again soon.
The Week Ahead:
Here’s a selection of beautiful work from across the XP Trust!

Please be aware that there is currently significant disruption on Middlebank and Stadium Way due to a number of lorry trailers parked along both roads.
The lorries on Middlebank are backing up through the roundabout on White Rose Way, which is making the area particularly congested. Traffic is moving slowly, with vehicles trying to pass each other on only one side of the road, so conditions are quite chaotic.
This situation is due to a strike at the Tesco warehouse and may continue for some time.
We strongly recommend allowing extra time for drop-off and pick-up, driving with caution, and considering alternative routes where possible.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Big news from Crew White — Lola has officially earned her black belt in Taekwondo!
Lola isn’t just a superstar in her martial arts classes — she works incredibly hard in school every single day. Her dedication in school clearly mirrors the discipline it takes to achieve a black belt!
Not only is Lola one of the kindest humans we know, but she’s also someone you definitely don’t want to mess with! Crew White couldn’t be prouder of her. From smashing targets in school to smashing goals in Taekwondo — what an achievement!
