Good punctuality is an excellent life-skill and we expect all our pupils to arrive in school before 8:30am. For parents/carers who have other children to drop off, or have to be at work early etc. we open the academy for pupils from 7:30am. Many pupils take advantage of this by attending breakfast club, catching up with friends in the atrium or using the library before school. For any pupil who arrives after 8:28am, we operate ‘late gates’ and pupils will be issued a sanction at lunchtime that day.

Calling all pupils from the Lynn Grove Academy Class of 2024.
It is time to collect your GCSE Certificates. You will need these certificates in the future so be sure to come and collect them and keep them safe. You will be surprised how often you will be asked for them during your working life and it is a complicated and expensive process to get replacements.
Certificates will be available to collect on
Tuesday 3 December 15:30 – 17:00
If you cannot make these times, please make an appointment to collect them after this time by phoning Lynn Grove Academy.
Certificates cannot be given to anyone other than the person named on the certificate unless you have provided written authorisation for a responsible adult to collect on your behalf. They will need photo id to collect. In line with JCQ (Joint Council for Qualifications) rules, we can only keep certificates for one year after which they will be disposed of and you will need to approach exam boards for copies.
We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday 3 December.
