Dear parents/carers, Thank you to all those parents/carers who attended the Ivy Education Trust Music event last night at Newton Abbot College.

Dear parents/carers, We’ve had a really busy sporting week with a number of fixtures.

Our first week back has been a really good one, despite the weather causing some interruptions! I hope you have all stayed safe throughout the storm. It has been great to see our students back and prepared for the more wintry half of our Autumn term, wearing their NAC jumpers and coats – I’m sure…
I can’t believe that we are already at half term; the last seven weeks have flown by! Our Geography students have all taken part in their compulsory exam field trip these last two weeks and have really done themselves, and us, proud. This is an essential part of their GCSE and it is really encouraging…
