Dear Parent

I have pleasure in presenting the Driffield School Governing Body's Annual Report for 2001/2002. Any issues raised within it may be discussed at the Annual Parent's Meeting and we are pleased to hold this year's meeting in the newly refurbished Youth Centre. I hope you will accept our invitation to attend and view this excellent addition to the School's facilities on Tuesday 4th March.

This will provide an opportunity to meet governors, when any concerns or views may be discussed and refreshments will be available.

We are always pleased to publicise the school's achievements and our success in attracting funding via the local press. For that reason, many of the contents of our report will be familiar to you already.

Outstanding exam results, a highly acclaimed OFSTED inspection and massive strides forward for Driffield School in general have been features of the last year.

To give you some idea of where the money we have received is being spent, we will be mounting a display and making a short presentation at the meeting on plans for the school site over the next few years.

As always, we must emphasise that a sound partnership between governors, headteacher, staff, LEA and the community is a pre-requisite to our school's success. The Annual Report reflects both the efforts required and results achieved over the last year in meeting this objective. Our sincere thanks and congratulations are due to all of those who have been involved with us in this partnership.

May I commend the document to you and I look forward to seeing you on March 4th.

Yours sincerely

Graham Storey
