@Nelson_PK @yateleyschool @durham_uni So very deserved, Sam! I am so proud of you. Very well done. You have a great career ahead of you and are such a lovely person too! Take care, Miss Self
Such phenomenal news about Sam - he’s one of those kids (read: fully fledged adults) that we at Yateley School will never forget.
Can’t wait to see how life develops for you now Sam!! We hope to hear more and more about your future successes #JustTheStart
To the @yateleyschool staff that helped Sam Keys to his GCSEs and A levels, thank you. He’s learned this afternoon that he’s earned a 1st class degree in Physics at @durham_uni
It would be fair to say we are super-excited for this one... let the pictures speak for themselves and all of us from @graphics_ys will look forward to seeing you soon!
Intense french lessons at the boulangerie in France @yateleyschool
Awesome ride at bagatelle theme park @yateleyschool
Day 1 in France, tunnel, war cemetery, le Touquet for shopping and ice cream, then hotel, park and early to bed. Fab lot so far @yateleyschool
😈👿 Launching our big art competition! 😈👿
This year the theme is "purple" and the deadline is 16 June for submission to our Art department.
The winner also gets a £30 Amazon voucher which they can spend on non-purple things. Go on... give it a shot!
A successful day for 4 of our students competing at the Hampshire Multi Events Championships yesterday. In the U15 boys, Jamie came 8th and Josh came 5th. In the U17 girls, Rosie came 4th and in the U17 boys, Freddie won the event and became county champion! Well done to all!
Good luck to our amazing year 13s today on their first A level paper! Mr Tidd and I have never marked so many past papers! Go smash it 🌎☀️ we are so proud of you! @yateleyschool
Year 8 have enjoyed making their pop up hurricanes in their Geography lessons this week - now to annotate and add formation! Well done year 8 🌀 🌍
And so it begins… 2 exams down and a lot still to go!!! Well done to our RS and Drama students 😎
Shout out from us too and well done Kai and Ash @yateleyschool 👏👏
@poetrybyheart @yateleyschool 🎉 Incredible! Ash has made the Grand Finale! Well deserved - so proud! Kai did amazingly well, too, and will be there at The Globe on 1st July to support her all the way. @yateleyschool @poetrybyheart
If students miss an exam, they won’t be able to sit it on a different day or receive any marks.
Make sure they know the consequences, check their exam timetable and are prepared with our student guide:

@yateleyschool GCSE week ahead. What a super document. The parents new bible for the next 6 weeks !! Huge Kudos and thanks to all who put such hard work into it!
A big thank you to our staff who supervised the trip as well; taking time out of their busy days to not teach and go and eat lots of chocolate instead.
#selfless
Yateley students ventured into the chocolatey depths of Cadbury World yesterday as part of their Geography unit on Globalisation! We think they're planning a 'sweet' takeover.
Future careers as chocolate tasters? 🤔
Sign me up...

The rainbows couldn’t even be bothered today.
Happy Easter everyone, from all of us at Yateley School…

An amazing day out @The_Globe for our year 11s - "that was so much more fun than reading it in class, Miss!" 👏 Enjoying Shakespeare exactly how it was intended! Some very happy @yateleyschool year 11s for an incredible performance of Romeo & Juliet.
The boys are all seated and ready for the women's All Star game 🏀
🏀British Basketball All Stars Game!🏀
We have just departed school with 15 boys from the school basketball teams to watch the All Stars game at the Copper Box Arena! Updates for the day will be posted here.
The Y7 ⚽ team played their last game of the year v @WeydonPE today, coming back from 2 goals down to win 3-2! Goals were scored by Ben-James and 2 by POM Seb!
Mystified by their continued wetness, here we capture our students’ horror as they google the word “foliage” ☔️
@yateleyschool I bet it’s ‘unchained’ (Gareth Gates.. Unchained melody? 🎵…. Ok ok. I’ll get my coat 🤣🤣).
It was at this point, with over 80 years of combined experience running schools, they settled on the name Gareth.
🚨 Opportunity Alert! Join Yateley School's Teaching Team 🚨
A decade ago, I made the best career decision of my life by joining Yateley School... perhaps you should do the same?
As a warm, welcoming and inclusive school, we are pleased to announce that our gates are... shut.
That's right! From 8.45am-3.10pm our school gates will be fully secured, meaning entrance only via reception or using our dedicated card readers. More here:
What one word would you use to describe women?
Well we got asking our staff and students today to celebrate International Women's Day 2024...
#InternationalWomensDay #BetterThanMe
Very disappointed that our receptionists felt it was appropriate to make me this poster, which allows me to move the wine closer to the end of term.
I say disappointed… but truth be told, I’ve been using it all week and it has really helped! 😂
A fantastic evening at the Regional Final of the MACE Debate Competition where our boys @YateleySchool gave it everything they could on the topic of Euthanasia. So proud. Congrats to @stcatsbramley for winning and thanks to @theESU for such an opportunity for our youngsters.
When one of our students pointed it out, we had to at least check the resemblance...
A fantastic week with our Year 12s carrying out fieldwork for their NEAs in Barcelona. We are so proud of you and are looking forward to some excellent coursework this year! Thank you for being such an exemplary group for our first A level international trip! 🌍 🌞
Day 2️⃣ in Barcelona - physical fieldwork skills and an evening lesson on human and physical methods! 🤩🌍 @Yateley6thform
Arriving in Barcelona for a week of fieldwork with year 12!
Night one - delayed post! Day one of fieldwork to follow 🌍🌍 @Yateley6thform
Phenomenal year 11 mock result assembly today. We are so proud of this lot and what they have achieved already and what they will go onto achieve. Getting to speak to them and praise them in unison is one of the best feelings a teacher can ever have…
#Year11 #proud
Year 10s did the school proud in our final match of the District Cup Finals. Despite trailing 24-6 at half time, they showed incredible tenacity to make an amazing comeback, unfortunately falling just short, losing 42-39! @yateleyschool
Year 7 Reports published to MCAS today… any problems for parents see our helpful email earlier or check out http://www.yateleyschool.net/mcas for help.
Excited for tomorrow's Basingstoke SCITT event here at Yateley School. There's no need to pre-register if you are just considering it... just turn up and you might find yourself enthralled by a career in teaching!
Come along tomorrow and meet the folks @bascitt to find out more!
“Alexa, give me 10 good reasons why I haven’t posted in ages”
Alexa: “Because you aren’t committed enough to keep your social media channels up to date despite your other work commitments.”
Thank you Alexa.

Considering a career change? Picture this: moulding young minds by day, mastering the art of creative excuses for missing homework by night! Perfection…
Teaching - where every day is an adventure, not an office… and you're the superhero of our classroom! 🍎✨ #JoinUs
It would be fair to say our #Y11 students are working very hard for their mocks, if judged by their Seneca usage!
Beautiful and detailed project work from year 11 today. Headed straight for the display board! 😊@yateleyschool #happyteacher #proud
Hearty congratulations to Olivia O'Reilly (Y12), who won the Youth Parliament seat for North East Hampshire. Olivia has led assemblies, canvassed voters, spoken at staff briefing and completely dedicated herself to winning this election... and she has!! #BetterthanBoris
The amazing team at @yateleyschool who made adjustable crowns in July have now made capes for our superhero hydro-heroes. The team has learnt about the challenges children face when living with #hydrocephalus which will help promote acceptance and inclusiveness in the future.
Final day of year 10 urban fieldwork! Well done - we are very proud of you. 🌎🤩 @yateleyschool
Pankhurst!!

House Drama performances done… we await the winner!! Announcement coming soon…
