We believe that consistent attendance is key to his growth and learning, and your support and encouragement mean a lot, and we are grateful for the positive environment you provide for xxxx and his classmates.

Dear Both, 

Just a note to say how incredibly impressed I am with BA to date. BA was our third choice and so we had our reservations.

However, my son has settled very well (a huge achievement I assure you) and having just finished my meeting with Ms Chiculita who was incredible in listening to me, educating me on how I can better support my son as a parent and planning a support action for him in school I am blown away. 

I did of course thank Ms Chiculita in person but wished for you both to note how very impactful she is for the school and the students.

Dear Mr Kama,

I just wanted to say thank you for everything you have done for me. The reason why I passed my papers and the reason I'm able to move on and go to collage with my grades is through your help. I realised I forgot to say thank you to you so I'm just writing to say thank you sir. I wish you the best in your future life, and hope to see you soon.

Dear Ms Luthfa,

I just wanted to send a quick email to say a massive thank you, to yourself and all of xxx’s teachers.

From when he was first moved from Welling School to the academy, I have found the school and all of the staff to be so helpful and supportive and truly amazing. xxx really turned a corner at BA and that is mainly down to the support he was given. 

Throughout this time your staff at BA have been fantastic. Mr Whitham, Miss Goodrich (I believe is his sports study teacher) and today his music teacher Anita have shown such encouragement and support and have never given up on him. This is how I remember teachers to be. We managed to complete his music coursework today thanks to the time and effort Anita put in and we are truly grateful, it has given xxx the confidence he needed and helped him not give up completely.

Mrs Bulford and Miss Kendall have also made such an impact on Harry and again showed him so much support.

I just wanted you to know how thankful we all are with the kindness everyone has shown towards him.

Take care and good luck for the future.

Dear Ms Kendall,

It was a pleasure to help young minds today.

I just wanted to quickly say how lovely everyone that came to speak with us was. Whilst they came with their worries it was great to hear that they already knew how the academy supports students with mental health concerns and everything they have at their fingertips.

To the team at Bexleyheath Academy,

Please can you thank your wonderful students who showed us around the academy today. 

They are a true credit to the great work you are doing in the academy and they could not stop talking about how much they loved being part of the academy. 

Walking the corridors, there was a real sense of pride that the students had about their academy as they confidently opened the doors of classrooms and encouraged us to come in and see what was happening. 

Each classroom was warn and welcoming and students were eager to tell us all about what they were doing. 

We look forward to our next visit to the academy soon.

Dear Ms Luthfa,

On my way to the turnstiles I cam across xxx, xxx and xxx. They had been collecting piles of plastic bottles from the flower beds outside of the academy as they wanted to make sure the community looked tidy. 

They have said that they would be encouraging other students to do the same as they wanted everyone to care for the community

Dear Year 07 Pastoral Team,

I am a teacher from St Catherine's and wanted to alert you of 03 of you Year 07 students. I live in the local community and was in Russell Park with my son last Thursday. Three of your students alerted me that a student from another school had urinated on the slide. There were concerned for my son who was about to go on the slide. I wanted to let you know as it took them a lot of effort to warm me and therefore, I wanted to take the time to praise these students for doing the right thing. 

Their names are xxx, xxx, and xxx.

Dear Ms Luthfa,

It was great to have the opportunity to meet with you as well as other members of the parent community at BA last week. 

It was good to myth bust at the start of our time together as people just needed to hear the truth which you were able to back up with evidence rather than gossip in social media. 

Walking around the academy was lovely and great to see how far the academy has come in class sizes and general engagement in lessons. 

We look forward to visiting during school events in the future.

Dear Ms Crawley,

It might only be a badge but my children have received two badges this year for achieving 100% attendance for each term. 

I am happy to see that their efforts to attend the academy daily are being recognised. They were their badges with pride and I am a proud mum that shows their badges off to all other parents. 

Thank you for also recognising the great things both my boys do. I was so happy to hear of all the nominations they got in their assemblies.

Dear Ms Luthfa,

I’ve been here a very long time but I do not think I have taken the time to sit back and look at how far we have come as a school. This is not just a reflection on the improvements of staff in the classroom but also the changes in our students as learners. 

I was observing lessons in my department this week and can see the fruits of our labour. Students are courageous and curious in lessons as they ask challenging questions. Students are articulate and well-mannered. 

I also reflected on how we are shaping them beyond the great grades we know they will get and am proud of our approach to creating students that care with the charity work that we have been doing as a school. 

I am a very proud staff member of what we have achieved and what we continue to achieve.

Dear Ms Luthfa,

First of all, thank you for not giving up on xxxx. Coming to the Year 11 Mock Results evening tonight was something I was dreading but when xxxx opened that envelope, it proved to him and me that he can do it! But what can not be looked over is the helps and support that your staff have given xxxx over the last few years and especially when he started Year 11. 

All the hard work from staff to getting him to interventions and getting him to attend the saturday sessions with kindness and patience. I am not sure we would ever get that in another school. now that xxxx knows he can get 4s in maths and english, the world is his oyster and we are all going to push him to the next grades.

Dear Ms Delver,

Thank you for organising the secret cinema experience for xxxx. It is great to see that xxxx efforts have been recognised with such a lovely experience.

Dear Staff at Bexleyheath Academy,

I often question how the youth of today are being brought up and I am often shocked at their lack of heart.

Today, my faith in the world was restored when I saw two of you students helping an elderly lady off of the B15 bus. Not only did they help her off the bus, I saw them check if she was ok and also ask if she wanted help getting to Asda. Grown adults did not do this but two people in your uniform did. 

I do not know who they are but I ask you to try and find them to congratulate them for what they have done!

Dear Ms Luthfa,

I hope this email finds you well. 

I would like to take another opportunity to express my gratitude of your support during the fire at Parkview on 30.03.2023. 

It was lovely to see some of your 6th Form students stop by Parkview today to check in on the residents. 

They have spoken about some talks about the academy running some events for the residents, we really look forward to hearing about these plans. The residents are eager for another one of your visits with students soon. They really value your time to come and see them and enjoy the energy that the students bring with them.
