After listening to feedback, a decision has been made that students will be issued with a Thomas Clarkson Academy bag for their kit for PE and dance classes.

Principal Clare Claxton spoke to our six Head Boys and Head Girls about the matter before the end of term.

Mrs Claxton said: “Following student and parent feedback about the lack of a proper PE bag we have decided to issue every student with a simple drawstring bag that can be used to carry equipment to and from students’ lockers before and after PE or Dance classes.”

Students are set to be issued with the drawstring bags after half term.
