News
We send a Weekly News Update to all our parents and carers each Friday, with highlights and news from the week in school.
You can also follow us on Instagram to keep up with recent school events and news – @dorothystringerschool.
Additionally, at the end of each term we publish The Stringer Press, our news publication that celebrates some of the many events, student successes and departmental news that have taken place over the course of the term. Scroll down to view our most recent edition.
Secondary Headteachers across Brighton & Hove are writing jointly to celebrate the achievements of our students and recognise the hard work, determination and resilience that has brought them to this point. As a city, we believe every young person is a City Child, and that every child’s success matters to us all. Today’s results reflect the achievements of individual students and the dedication of the staff, families and communities who support them. We also recognise that every school serves a unique community, with different cohorts of young people bringing their own experiences, strengths and challenges. Results are only one part of the story of a school and the young people within it. Our shared commitment is to celebrate success wherever it is found, learn from one another and continue working together to ensure that every City Child has the opportunity to thrive. We are incredibly proud of all our students, congratulate them on their achievements and wish them every success for the future.
