Progress Lead Year 8 – Mr N Calland Storey

Being the Progress Lead for Year 8 at Millfield makes me feel incredibly proud. The students at Millfield are welcoming, determined and resilient.

I strive to embed a deep-rooted ethos of team spirit and teamwork into every Year 8 student. Every individual victory, both in and outside of school, should be celebrated and highlighted for the students to learn and develop from.  Expectations are high and students have already learnt a lot.  During Year 8 students will continue developing the knowledge and skills they have acquired to ensure that they maintain a high level of commitment to learning and progress.

As a Progress Lead, I am here to ensure that each student feels confident enough to face challenges, ask for help, make new friends and be the best version of themselves. In addition to this, I work closely with staff and parents to ensure that academic progress is monitored whilst offering support and guidance to ensure that a well-rounded education is achieved, and that each student develops their own tool kit of both academic and social skills to use when they eventually leave us. 

At Millfield we work on a whole school approach with a high level of communication between departments within school, parents/carers, and outside services (when appropriate).   

Work hard, be kind and be the best version of yourself that you can be.
