Next week, our Year 10 students at Redmoor will be participating in the 100 Talks for Change initiative, a mission by two inspiring young men to travel the country, delivering 100 mental health talks to young people within 20 days. The talk will highlight the importance of conversations about mental health and equip students with more understanding of when and how to seek support if they need it. The Talks for Change journey is being captured in a documentary, so the BBC may be accompanying the speaker on his journey of talks. If you are a parent of a Year 10 student, please see the email with more details.
We are having a bake sale on Friday 29th Sept to raise money for the amazing charity, Macmillan Cancer Support. If you’d like to get involved, then please take your bakes (in a clearly labelled container) to your tutor on Friday morning to receive your house points before they are sold at break time.
We will also give an extra 25 house points to the best cake in each year group and 10 house points for a runner up!
We look forward to welcoming our new year 7 students to Redmoor on Wednesday 30th August. Here are a few reminders about the first few weeks of term:
At Redmoor we pride ourselves on high standards with uniform. Please remember to check your transition booklet or the following link with regards to uniform: https://www.
If you have any questions about uniform please do get in touch.
On Wednesday 30th August, please enter school through the main reception as year 7 will be gathering in the hall. If you arrive before 8.30am please use the back playground where there will be staff on duty to welcome you.
Over the first few weeks we will be introducing you to lots of new things at Redmoor, this includes spending extra time with your tutor over the first two days. You will be given a map and lots of guidance to help you find your way from one lesson to the next.
Importantly, you will need your ClassCharts login details to access details of homework tasks, reward points and sanctions. There will be login details for both parents and students which you will receive by Friday 1st September. Please note that for the first three weeks year 7 students will only have homework set in English, Mathematics and Science. This will hopefully help students get to know our expectations of homework, begin to complete it and hand it in on time without feeling overwhelmed as they transition from primary school.
There will be an opportunity for parents to attend two evening events during the first half term, our KS3 Information Evening and Year 7 Tutor Evening. We really would encourage parents to attend both events to help support your child’s transition to secondary school. You will receive more details about both events in the near future.
Please do get in contact if you have any questions or queries.
We look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday 30th August!
Thank you to all of our Year 11 students for yet again, another amazing Prom. You all looked fantastic! Here are our Redmoor photos, including some from our Year 10 photography students. We will let you know as soon as the professional photos are available.

We are proud to announce that we are once again being awarded with the Gold Shakespeare Schools award. This is in recognition of the hard work Redmoor Academy has put in over the years we have been involved in the festival. Well done to all past and present students who have taken part in the festival and made this possible!
Redmoor has been celebrating the Coronation of King Charles III this week!
We’d like to thank our amazing students for all of the cakes that were donated for the Coronation Bake Sale, yet again, we were blown away by your efforts and talent. They all looked and tasted delicious! All of the money raised will be donated to our House Charities.
We’d like to thank Geoff the Chef for his special menu which was served at lunch today, what a treat!
Our students also participated in a lesson during their PHSCE time to learn the history and meaning behind the coronation. We look forward to seeing this moment in History this weekend and hope all of our families enjoy the bank holiday.
A big thank you to our staff and students for their efforts for last week’s World Book Day!
