Dear Families, 

We hope this finds you well as we see the beginning of warmer weather and longer days with sunshine.

Incident at UCL Academy: Families have asked about a confusing headline in the local media about a stabbing at 'a Swiss Cottage school'. We want to reassure all families that this did not happen at our school. Earlier this week, there was a serious critical incident at UCL Academy when a 12 year old student was injured in a knife incident during the school day. It is a very upsetting and distressing for our local community. We have expressed our support for the UCL Academy community and are informed that the child is recovering is hospital. If you have any questions or are impacted, please catch senior team at the gates or over a phone call.

Camden Special Parents Forum: The next event is a Forum Meeting, on Wednesday 12th March, 10:30am-12:30pm at Greenwood Centre. Click here or on the flyer to access more information.

Camden MOSAIC: This series of workshops at Swiss Cottage School on Mondays will continue with a focus on ‘Siblings’. The next session will take place on Monday 10th March. Click here or on the flyer to access more information and to book a place. Interpreters are available on request.
