The Flagpole

The Grounds team welcome Craig as the Assistant Grounds Manager, from the University of Warwick where he was the Deputy Head Groundsman for four years.

Craig started his career as a Golf Greenkeeper at Coventry Golf Club and worked his way up from a YTS trainee to First Assistant over a twenty-year period, gaining a number of professional qualifications including levels one, two and three in Sports Groundmanship.

Craig is also a qualified football coach and helps teams in the local community. He lives locally in Wolston with his wife Kerrie and their two children.

To assist us with our planning of teaching sets and timetabling, please could you let us know in writing to Mr Hester by Friday 20 April 2018, if you do not wish to take up a place in the Sixth Form. 

This would meet the term’s notice of withdrawal as set out in our terms and conditions.

All offers for the Sixth Form as you know, are provisional on GCSE results.  If the required criteria is not met the notice period will be waivered.

If a decision is made not to take up the offered Sixth Form place even though the required GCSE results have been obtained and a term’s notice has not been given, you will be liable for the terms fees.

We will write to the parents of pupils in the Upper Sixth regarding instructions for the return of deposits next term and return them in the summer holiday. We will write to parents of Year 11 pupils who do not return to the Sixth Form in early September. Deposits will be returned at the end of September/start of October.
