Well done to all of our students for participating last Wednesday. After a difficult year, we loved seeing you get involved, take part in all of the activities and have some fun.
The winning house will be announced this week!
Please find below final details for the four REC trips that are taking place this Thursday 24th June:
As we begin the final term of 2021’s academic year tomorrow, we wanted to say goodbye to our Year 11 students as we celebrated their final day at Redmoor last Friday with a day of celebrations and ‘The Party in the Park’.
Mrs Buckingham wanted to say: “A big thank you to you lovely year 11’s for making our last day together so memorable. It has been a pleasure getting to know you all and working with you over the past five years. You have grown into the most wonderful young people, who I am sure will go out into the world and make a difference. Take care of yourselves. Remember to stay safe, be kind, but most of all be happy!”
We wish you good luck and we look forward to seeing you all on Results Day. Take care for now, from all of us at Redmoor.
During lockdown, Redmoor Academy has been awarded the ‘Gold Shakespeare School’ by Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation. Awarded to us for the hard work and dedication that has been shown for more than 10 years by the students of Redmoor Academy and of course, Miss Brown. Read more about this amazing award here:
By being a Shakespeare School we have displayed a commitment to providing inspiring opportunities for our students, year after year for over 10 years, helping to keep creativity high on the agenda and support students to build crucial transferable skills for the future. Redmoor has also embedded personal development into our student experience through creative arts engagement. We have encouraged community engagement showcased the talents of young people, supported theatre and engaged new audiences.
The Gold schools are the most experienced and dedicated within the school network for Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation, with the teachers being a part of school network which newer schools and aspiring teacher-directors can learn from those dedicated teachers.
After a difficult year for the world and arts and the CSSF Festival having to be completed in many different ways across the country, we looked at how we could do a radio play, just using our voices and sound to create a dramatic ‘Macbeth’, other schools did film work with some even using interpretive dance. There are so many ways we can express what Shakespeare meant in his plays, whilst captivating a new audience with different styles and adaptations!
As well as a certificate from the managing director of Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation (CSSF), we will be displaying our badge with pride on the school website and letterheads, as well as the school being showcased on the CSSF website.
This year the Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation is offering an array of different options to be involved with, so keep an eye out for ways you could be involved in this exciting creative experience!
To Year 11 students, parents and carers,

The front of the hoodie will display a small Redmoor ‘R’ on the left breast with the back displaying the print design shown in the right hand image below, personalised with first names and surnames of our Year 11s.
The hoodie is priced at £20.27 and available in 6 size adult options: XS, S, M, L, XL and XXL. Unfortunately, due to the current restrictions in place around Coronavirus, there will not be the option to look at samples or try on for sizing. However, full details of chest measurements are included below.
