 Progress is rapid - two weeks into the build and the consolidation of the ground has begun - the field has never been so flat! Some drains have also been installed to carry away rain water. Although there are several very large construction machines on site disruption has been minimal. Some more photographs below.

During the half-term break A P Thompson began work on our new 3g pitch which is due for completion in June 2010. Over the period of 16 weeks workers will be on the school site constructing the pitch and landscaping the surrounding area to ensure it has a minimal effect on our neighbours. An update of progress will be available on this website each week. |

Thomas Barber, who left us in 2008, has gained a place at Pembroke College, Oxford, where he is going to study jurisprudence (law). Thomas’s success will come as no surprise to those who remember him. Not only was he head boy and a very prominent member of our debating team but he also managed to gain 8.5A*, 2A and 1C grades in his GCSE examinations and grade A in AS ICT. Thomas made a fantastic contribution to the life of the school and was always a tremendous ambassador for Archbishop Lanfranc. He is currently completing his “A” level studies at Wilson’s School. We wish him all the very best with his Oxford experience and feel absolutely confident this will lead to a glittering career. We are always very pleased to hear of the success of our former pupils and would be delighted if the website prompted a flurry of further good news stories. |

Croydon’s plans to join the Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme have now been accepted and it is likely that Archbishop Lanfranc will benefit in the form of a new school building beginning as early as May 2012. The Transforming Croydon Schools team (TCS) are working closely with the school to develop our ideas in advance of meeting designers and architects. Governors, staff, parents and pupils are involved in workshops and discussions which will shape our thinking about the new school building. Each week Darren Atkinson, the Service Transformation Coordinator, issues an email which contains information and links to useful and interesting websites. Click on the link below to access some of these sites. Log in regularly for updates to the BSF blog area in the coming weeks. Please feel free to explore the content and if you have any suggestions and/or ideas for the new school please contact us via the website contact us section, marking the email "BSF". BSF blogs |
