MMR vaccine catch-up clinics running this April and May. Make sure your child is protected from measles
Following a rise in measles cases in London and England, the NHS are urging parents and carers to make sure their children are up-to-date with their MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccinations. To do this you can check your child’s red book, or check with your GP, who can offer MMR catch-up appointments. Measles can lead to serious illness but it is preventable through two doses of the MMR vaccine.
Catch-up clinics are available to school-aged children, and teens up 19 years old, on Saturday, 27 April and Saturday 18 May at the Clover Street Clinic in Chatham.

Exam Information Afternoon
On Friday 3rd May, between 4pm and 5pm, we will be hosting a Year 11 Exam Information Afternoon, providing parents and carers of Year 11 students the opportunity to gain valuable insights into: Exam Timetables, Finishing Timetable, Wellbeing and Support, as well as Final Revision Tips.
We understand that the exam period can be a stressful time for both students and parents. We are here to support you every step of the way. Attending the Year 11 Exam Information Afternoon is a great way to gain valuable information and address any concerns you may have.
For more information, please see the letter shared with parents and carers earlier this week. We look forward to seeing you there.
Reintroduction of Year 11 Privilege Cards
We had a great start to the module on Monday with Year 11 attendance being a fantastic 97.1%! To reward them for this exceptional figure we are re-introducing the privilege cards. Well done to all Year 11 students, this is a great way to start the module and this high attendance will surely pay off in the coming weeks.
Exam Stress
With Year 11 GCSEs fast approaching, it is important to take some time to look at exam stress and the impact this may have on a young person's mental, physical and emotional wellbeing. This guide offers you ten practical tips for helping your children to manage exam stress and minimise its potentially detrimental effects. Our staff are available to support students and families at this time, as we realise exam stress can affect not only students but also those around them. Please feel free to reach out to us at Strood Academy for any support required.
