Good luck to all of our students and students across the country for tomorrow. Whatever the results, be proud of yourself and how far you've come. Not all achievements are academic.

A reminder, Albright will be open 10am-12pm tomorrow for students to collect their GCSE results.

VE Day celebrations. From staff dressing in 1940s style and students in red, white and blue, to a street party with 1940s music, lots of cake and table activities including completing a tag with their hopes for the future. @edusky.bsky.social #ThisisAP #SEMH #VEDay80 #VEDay

Thanks to the parents who attended our Year 11 Workshop exploring how to support YP with exam stress. It was a brilliant opportunity to openly discuss worries, provide knowledge and reassure parents during the stressful exam period. @edusky.bsky.social #SEMH #ThisisAP

Dexter accompanied our Albright Plus pupils to explore how bears are made after learning about the history of toys. Dexter enjoyed being pampered and played hide and seek with the other bears and students! @edusky.bsky.social #SEMH #ThisisAP #community #curiosity #play @iqmaward.bsky.social

Exciting times ahead for Albright!

There was a sense of pride around the centre today as we handed over the £197.03 that we raised on Pink Day to Libby Mae's Little Angels! And we received a lovely certificate to acknowledge our fundraising efforts! @edusky.bsky.social #community #SEMH #ThisisAP #proudmoment #fundraising

Staff and students wore pink today in support of a local charity, Libby Mae's Little Angels. We've had a fun day with teddy tombolas, a pink themed staff/student bake off, pink raffle and ended the day with parents/carers popping in for a cuppa and cake!

Dexter accompanied pupils and staff to visit Smethwick Guru Nanak Gurdwara. They went into the main prayer hall and had some tasty food from the Langar Hall. It was a fabulous experience for all to enjoy first hand. @iqmaward.bsky.social @edusky.bsky.social #EduSEND #Inclusion #ThisisAP

What a wonderful assembly today from Mrs W. We have learnt so much about seeds, planting, and how gardening is good for our mental health 🩵🌱 #wellbeing #MentalHealthAwareness #communityspirit @albrightcentre.bsky.social

All month, in the first couple of hours after dark, you'll find Venus and Saturn in the southwest, Jupiter high overhead, and Mars in the east. (Uranus and Neptune are there too, but a telescope is needed to see them.) #planetparade #STEM #STEMeducation @edusky.bsky.social

And that's a wrap! What a jam packed, fun filled Autumn Term we have had! Now it's time for our staff and students to rest and enjoy time with their loved ones.
We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year filled with peace and joy. ✨️
