"To those who helped others, to those who battled adversity in their lives, to those who asked for our help, to those who fought against us, to those who talked with us for hours and those we could never get a word out of, to those who entertained us, to those who found long-lasting friendship at school, to those who we believed in, but who found it hard to believe in themselves, to the anxious, to the confident, to those who are talented in so many ways, to those who have yet to realise how talented they are, to all of you .... we will never forget you.
"We are living through momentous times and you have so much to offer and so much to contribute - our world needs people like you.
"A recent official review of our school said that we have a "superb, naturally ingrained inclusive ethos" (IQM Flagship review July 2020) and you are a big part of that.
