Children in Primary were delighted to receive a Summer gift this week from the CCS Puzzle Club: ‘Oh My Gosh – It’s The Creative Book Of CCS Puzzles!’.
This lunchtime club for years 5 and 6 created wordsearches and crosswords with themes ranging from planets, to authors, and from Mario, to cheesecake flavours. Ellis said this was “a great thing to do to pass the time” and the team decided to turn their work into an illustrated book, choosing 43 puzzles from 17 different creators. Isti said the book was made to “inspire people into creativity’, while Leo’s enthusiastic introduction describes it as great ‘for traffic jams and holidays’.
Well done to everyone who contributed - especially Alex, Ellis, Jess, Leo, Sochima and Isti for their creativity, collaboration and perseverance to make this possible. Here are our Year 4 learners enjoying the book.
Please find below our latest Annual Sports Magazine for the year 2024–2025.
We are proud to share our annual PE magazine celebrating the sporting achievements, events and memorable moments from across the academic year.
A huge thank you to all the students, staff, coaches and supporters who have contributed to another fantastic year of sport.
We hope you enjoy reading and reliving some of the highlights of 2024–2025.

Dear Parents and Carers,
We are very pleased to share the outcome of our most recent Ofsted inspection, which took place as part of a Section 8 (ungraded) inspection under the Education Act 2005. These inspections are designed to determine whether schools have continued to maintain the standards identified during their previous full inspection.
We are delighted that the inspection confirmed we maintained our standing of Good overall, with our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) remaining Outstanding. This is a wonderful reflection of the hard work, dedication and passion shown by our entire school community – staff, students, trustees, and of course, you – our supportive parents and carers. If you would like to read the full inspection, please find it below.
We are proud of this achievement and remain fully committed to providing the highest quality of education and care for all our children.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support.
We are delighted to share with you the CCS STEM Society Newsletter, featuring a fantastic collection of research articles written by our very own students.
Each member of the STEM Society chose a topic they were personally passionate about, allowing them to delve deeper into areas beyond the standard school curriculum. This independent exploration not only broadened their understanding but also provided valuable supercurricular experience — an excellent addition to their future university applications.
We’re incredibly proud of the curiosity, dedication, and academic ambition our students have shown through this project, and we hope you enjoy reading their work as much as they enjoyed creating it.
Dear students,
If you sat your GCSE or A Levels at Caroline Chisholm School in Summer 2024, you will be able to collect your certificates on Monday 9th December between 3:20pm to 6:00pm from Secondary reception.
You can give written consent to a parent or sibling to collect them on your behalf.
If you are unable to collect your certificates on 9 December 2024, please contact the school to arrange a suitable date and time, during school term time 8:00am – 4:30pm to collect your certificates.
Thank you!
Caroline Chisholm students celebrate pleasing GCSE results

We are incredibly proud of all their hard work and the results released today showcase another strong performance, with the number of students obtaining top grades (7+ - equivalent to an A grade) increasing from 18.18% last year to 21.41% this year, and 79% of students achieving a 4+ - equivalent to a C+ - compared to the national average of 67.4%. We were also pleased to see 93% of students achieving a 4+ in English and 56% of students achieving a strong pass in both English and Maths.”
Year 11 Performance Leader, Emma Terry, said: “I am so proud of the Year 11s. Their resilience and determination have paid off with the results we have seen this morning. Having been with them since they were in Year 8, it has been an honour to watch them grow and develop into the incredible young people they now are. I wish them all success in wherever their next steps take them."

We wish all our Year 11 students the very best of luck as they embark on their next chapter."
Year 13 students at Caroline Chisholm School gathered this morning to share in the excitement of A-level results day with their friends, family and teachers.
Principal of Caroline Chisholm School, Mr David James, said: "It’s been wonderful to see our students celebrating their well-deserved A-Level results today with their friends, families and teachers. Students have achieved very well in their results, 73% of grades achieved at A Level were A*-C with 36% of students securing a place at Russell Group Universities. Their achievements reflect the dedication and hard work they’ve put in over the past two years, and I am immensely proud of every one of them.”
Assistant Principal with oversight of KS5, Miss Alessandra Cambio, also adds: “I couldn't be prouder of our students’ achievements this year. Each of them has shown remarkable growth, not just academically but also as individuals ready to take on the challenges of the future. I congratulate every one of them on their success and look forward to seeing the incredible things they will accomplish in the next chapter of their lives."
The Sixth Form Team are extremely proud that many of our students have secured, and continue to secure, their first-choice university placements. Early indications reveal that over 60% of our students have successfully achieved their top choices.
We wish all our students the best of luck as they embark on their future pathways, and we look forward to hearing about their achievements in the years to come.
Our High Performance Learning student ambassadors are excited to share the achievements of the past year. Spanning from year 3 to year 12, these students have worked diligently across various projects. They frequently meet, with some of the tea often meeting during their lunchtimes, to plan and execute valuable activities that benefit the entire school community. Thank you to our ambassadors for their dedication and for promoting HPL so effectively throughout the school.
