The year 10 had an exciting opportunity to visit the historical London Central Mosque in Regents Park organised by the Religious Studies department at UHS.
Dance and drama students thoroughly enjoyed watching a performance of Wicked at the Apollo Victoria Theatre in January.
The performance provided us with invaluable information and support completing coursework and lesson information around the piece.
Geography students attended a trip to Blenheim Palace with Morgan Sindall. During the trip, students were given a tour of a local woodland ecosystem, planted tree saplings, were given talks on sustainability, toured the palace grounds and went to the Butterfly House.
Students also received free annual passes to visit Blenheim Palace whenever they want, throughout the next year.
The visit linked closely with the current GCSE topic they are studying and all of the students thoroughly enjoyed it.
School will close early on Monday 27th September 2021 - 2pm for all students.
School will open at a later time on Tuesday 28th September. Students should arrive at 10:55am, enter through their normal gates and go straight to registration. Their first lesson will be period 3 which starts at 11:15am.
Due to high demand our three open mornings were full and therefore we have taken the decision to schedule a further open morning at 9.30am on Thursday 21st October. If you would like to book a place, please telephone 01895 234060 or email office@uhs.org.uk.
Please note that we do not have any parking available on site for visitors. There are pay and display parking bays in The Greenway and Whitehall Road. Alternatively, there are several bus routes that stop near to the school.
On these dates you will have the opportunity to come into school to meet with our Principal, Mr Nigel Clemens, before being taken on a tour so that you can see the school in action. Booking is essential as numbers are limited. To book, please contact main reception on 01895 234060 or email office@uhs.org.uk to confirm your place. We look forward to welcoming you.

You will be aware from the national media that the Department for Education has made sudden and late changes in its expectations of schools when they re-open in January. All secondary schools have been asked to extend the previously planned staggered start to the spring term.
For exam group students in Years 11 and 13, remote learning will commence on Tuesday 5th January. Students in these year groups should remain at home and should log on to Microsoft Teams at 10.50am on the 5th for registration with their form tutor. Online lessons will begin with period 3. Students in both year groups will return to school on Monday 11th January.
We will also provide on-site education for our more vulnerable children and children of key workers. Members of staff from our Flexible Learning Centre will be in contact directly with some families on Tuesday 5th January to invite them into school from Wednesday 6th January. If you are a critical key worker and are unable to source care for your child during this first part of term, please contact the school office (office@uhs.org.uk) to book a place. We will confirm arrangements back to you by email.
Students in Years 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12 will remain at home for an extra two weeks and return to school on Monday 18th January at the normal times. Provision of remote learning in the period up to the 18th is being considered for these year groups and an update will follow.
The school will be working to set up a rapid flow testing centre during the opening two weeks of term. The set up will include the collection of parental consent forms for all our students. When we have more details on this, a further communication to parents will be sent and will include the consent form.
Start of term arrangements are detailed in the Principal's update of 1st January below.
