13 November 2026

Dear Families,

We have enjoyed seeing many of you for Family Learning sessions across the week and have had lots of positive feedback about the learning taking place and the staff relationships. We will offer further sessions next term, along with opportunities to tour the school and get a sense of wider provision in action.

The Black History Exhibition has been a great success, and pupils have enjoyed visiting to see their work on display. Below there is a brief video of the exhibition that we hope you will enjoy.

Staff and families were informed this week of a short-term partnership with the Hospital School at GOSH and UCLH. Parents were invited to ask questions today and for those who were unable to attend, we are offering a further opportunity on
Monday 23rd November at 6.30pm (online), to talk to us about any queries or concerns that you may have – please email: [admin@swisscottage.camden.sch.uk](http://admin@swisscottage.camden.sch.uk) if you would like a link.

**Coffee Morning**

Next week, Tuesday 17th November at the usual time of 10.00am, our coffee morning is an opportunity to drop in, talk with other families and engage with our Family Inclusion Team.

**World’s Best School**

The World’s Best School Prizes Winning Ceremony will be held on Thursday 19th November 2026, starting at 12:30am. You can join the live stream on [T4 Education's YouTube account](https://www.youtube.com/@T4Education/featured) to find out who will take home this year's award. We are pleased to have been shortlisted, but would be even more delighted to win.

Have a wonderful weekend,

Syra Sowe
Principal
