Please be aware this video discusses how Outwood Academy Ripon operates under normal circumstances. Currently we are operating a "bubble" system which keeps years groups separate from each other and maximises student safety. Our most recent risk assessment can be found here.

VIDEO-2020-06-03-13-17-24.mp4Rose is one of our current year 8 students, she has put together a short video for you. Rose talks about her first day at school, she explains how she feels about some of her lessons and tells you about some of the exciting things you will be able to get involved in.
At the moment we are working very differently to the way we were a year ago. Students are working in 'bubble ' classrooms to avoid coming into contact with other year groups. Each year group has a separate lunch and break time and we have Year Group Forms. We are incredibly proud of the way our students and staff adapt to this ever changing situation and feel confident that our academy is a really safe place to come and learn. As the situation with COVID changes we may adapt our school day and how our school day runs. Facebook and Twitter will be updated as well as our website, texts will be sent to parents and if any of you have any questions you can email us at enquiries@ripon.outwood.com.

It may be a worry at first, but all the other year groups and teachers are always there to help you when you get lost or aren't sure what to do. It's a very friendly school and very welcoming, you have nothing to be afraid about just ask if you need help.
