Bring your child’s learning to life
1 February 2010
Parents and carers from across the borough are invited to
drop-in to a special information evening on 11 February to find out
about high school Diplomas.
The event, at The Soccer Village, Milnrow, is primarily aimed at
parents of Year 9 students who will shortly be choosing their
options and will offer a chance to talk to staff and current
students undertaking diplomas.
Diplomas are an exciting qualification and since their launch in
2008, schools across Rochdale are now offering seven different
Diplomas: Creative and Media, Construction and the Built
Environment, Engineering, Hair and Beauty Studies, Information
Technology, Society, Health and Development, Sport and Active
Leisure. Each involves hands-on learning, in and out of the
classroom and many local employers are involved in their planning
and delivery.
Councillor Zulfiqar Ali, Cabinet Member for Children. Schools
and Families at Rochdale Borough Council said:
“This event is part of a week of Diploma sessions and I would
encourage all parents and carers to come along as they play an
important part of any decision a student makes about their
future”.
Parents can call in for anytime between 4pm – 7pm on Thursday 11
February at the Soccer Village in Milnrow. For more information
