Y10 assessments: 11th-22nd October

Message from our prospective Senior Students

We are delighted to welcome you to this edition of the Lister Student News

The highlight of this term has to be The Big Reset. Thanks to all the amazing work by our staff and students, we’ve been able to have a smooth transition back to our pre-Covid schedules. We’re extremely proud of our Year 7s for settling in so well and grateful to all of our fellow students for making them feel welcome into the school community. We all know that this year has been one of many ups and downs but this last term has seen some amazing work from everyone.

Consultation re completion of the conversion of Lister Community School

Following our consultation in 2018, Lister Community School and Rokeby School federated and became Foundation schools, in order to cement our partnership with Sarah Bonnell School. This means that the Federated Governing Board is already the employer of staff, rather than the Local Authority, and the Federation already owns the land and is its own admissions authority. The choice for us at this point is therefore whether to academise, which will make it much easier for us to work as a Trust in the long term, or whether to stay as Foundation schools, which would mean us continuing with a split model of governance in NCST.

Please visit Newham Community Schools Trust website to read more about the  consultation, letters to staff and parents, frequently asked questions and other key documents.
