Year 11 Parents’ Evening

Please ensure that you book your appointments for the year 11 parents’ evening.  The booking window opens at 4pm today (Friday 20th January) for all subjects except core PE.  If you wish to book a core PE appointment you will be able to do this from 4pm on Friday 27th January.  This allows students taking PE GCSE to have priority booking for appointments with the PE staff.

Our careers guidance adviser, Mrs Emma Durand, will also be available for you and your child to meet with at the year 11 parents’ evening on Tuesday 7th February (priority night).  If you would like to make an appointment to discuss any aspect of post-16 plans, including applications to colleges, sixth forms or apprenticeships, please select Mrs Durand from the list of teachers within SchoolCloud.

Uniform Shop - Leopard Boutique

Leopard Boutique is closed for a break from Monday 6th February to Sunday 12th February.  Therefore, uniform will not be able to be purchased during this period.

Leave of absence request

Please could we remind parents that if they wish to take their child out of school during term time, please could we ask that you complete a leave of absence form.  They can be found here /ahsattendance

Reporting your child absent

Please could we remind parents that you do need to provide a detailed reason why your child is absent from school, unfortunately we are unable to accept the reason as 'poorly' or 'not coming in' therefore, if this is the reason reported you may get a truancy call for your child.  Also, your child's absence has to be reported daily for the duration of their absence.

The Friends of Aylsham High School raise money to buy educational and other fun extra items and experiences for AHS students.  

We are fund-raising to support activities week in summer 2023 and to help purchase spare PE items.  

Please could you help us by donating any pre-loved uniform that we can resell at bargain prices to raise funds and save parents money.

Donations are welcome when placed in bags, marked ‘Friends of AHS’ and left at main school reception.  

Many thanks for your support.
