The college would like to inform students of the exam dates and times in the New Year ahead of the end of the term.

Ahead of the end of term, the college would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and inform you about a few items.

Due to lessons finishing early on Friday 20th December we have amended the college bus times on all routes, please note the change of time so you don't miss your bus.

You may be aware that a student at the college’s London Road campus was recently admitted to the hospital with suspected meningococcal disease.

Shrewsbury Colleges Group is delighted to celebrate the outstanding achievements of two talented apprentices, Kyle Blower and Cai Curtis.

At the beginning of December, the college will send out the A Level certificates for the students who sat A Levels during the summer.

Due to the potential impact of strike action on the reliability of appointments for the Year 2 Consultation Event on Thursday, 28 November, between 5.00pm and 8.00pm, we are switching from running a face-to-face event to using the online meeting facility, MS Teams.

Shrewsbury Colleges Group has responded to the notification of strike action at the college by teachers who are members of the National Education Union.

Strike action will occur on Thursday, 28 November, Tuesday, 3, and Wednesday, 4 December 2024.

The strike action is in response to the NEU's dispute with the Secretary of State for Education over the demand for a fully funded above-inflation pay award for teachers and will take place in some sixth-form colleges.

The college will take action to minimise the strike's impact on students across the three days.

The strike action will not affect college trips, the Criminology external assessment on 28 November, the information event on 28 November or the Christmas Concert on 4 December.

Students who have an assessment, exam, or trip will still be expected to attend college to complete the exam or assessment or go on the trip on these dates in November and December. All lessons will be registered.

The overwhelming majority of lessons will take place as usual. Therefore, all students should attend college as normal unless informed otherwise by the relevant Curriculum Director.

Students will be contacted by:

  • Tuesday, 26 November, with the details of alternative arrangements for Thursday, 28 November
  • Friday, 29 November, with the details of alternative arrangements for Tuesday, 3 December
  • Monday, 2 December, with the details of alternative arrangements for Wednesday, 4 December

The Curriculum Directors are:

English Bridge Campus
Helen Morgan and Belinda Greenaway

Welsh Bridge Campus
Cathy McAllister and Jamie Hopkins

London Road Campus
Michelle Dawes, Andrew Lee, Jackie Swan, Stuart Raine, Micky Riddell

Shropshire Council has introduced a safe zone around the school on Sutton Way.
