Our weekly celebration of students’ excellence.
The Book of Excellence is a striking celebration of the school’s ethos. Created from our students’ design concepts, at its heart the book is building a permanent, ever-growing record of our students’ achievement and excellence throughout the school.
Each week a student from each year group is chosen from staff nominations, their success recorded in the book for everyone to see. The pages build up an archive of distinction through the year.
Larnie nominated by Mrs Waterson
I would like to nominate Larnie for the Book of Excellence for always being helpful and polite. Larnie also has a great attitude to learning. Well done!
Annas nominated by Mrs Glover
I am nominating Anass for being a great example of a student embodying the Five Respects and school values at all times. He is determined and hard working in all that he does.
Aanifah nominated by Mrs Coope
Aanifah recently led the Year 1 students as part of her leadership qualification and received great praise from the organiser. She is an asset to the school and it is a privilege to have taught her. Well done Aanifah.
Maria nominated by Mrs Taylor
Maria has produced an acrylic painting based on the artist Angela Faustina for her GCSE Fine Art coursework that has blown me away! The painting is absolutely exceptional in it’s skills and completed entirely as home learning. It is one of – if not the best – painting produced by a Year 10 student I have ever seen and easily worthy of a grade 9.
In lessons, Maria always works hard and her ATLE is consistently excellent. She is a role model in maturity, commitment and organisation to others in the class and definitely sets a high bar for others to aspire to. Well done! Keep up the incredible work Maria.
Isabella nominated by Miss Wood
Isabella has made remarkable progress over the past four months, particularly in building her confidence and developing a more positive mindset towards her learning. When Isabella began her Learning Mentor intervention with me at the end of February, she was experiencing significant anxiety and feeling overwhelmed, particularly following the pressure she placed on herself during the January PPE exam period, which she was ultimately unable to complete. She felt so lost and didn’t even know where to start with her revision and future aspirations. Through her sessions with me, Isabella has grown in confidence, developed effective strategies to support her learning and begun to show greater self-compassion. She has shown outstanding resilience and determination in overcoming these challenges as we have worked together to create a routine that works for her and helps her to put less pressure on herself. Isabella has independently created and put into practice a structured revision timetable, revisiting and strengthening her existing knowledge across her subjects. Isabella has also taken meaningful steps towards understanding and working towards her future aspirations in Criminology. She is such a kind and respectful member of TRS who consistently strives to do her best. Her ability to reflect on her experiences and move forward with a more balanced and confident outlook is truly commendable. Isabella is a valued member of the school, and this recognition would not only celebrate her achievements but also reinforce her growing belief in her own abilities and potential.
