Dear Parent or Carer,

We are aware that some images have been circulated on social media in relation to the return coach trip today and we would like to clarify exactly what happened so that you are assured that it was only a very minor incident and there was no danger to any of our students.

After the performance at Middleton Arena, Coach 1 was parked and stationery while we registered students for the return. The bus behind us (from another bus company and school trip) pulled out from behind us and their wing mirror clipped the back corner of the bus. This caused the safety glass to break but it remained in the pane. No shards of glass fell. We disembarked all the students from the bus and waited in the arena while a replacement bus was sent to collect us.

Thank you

Sixth Form Team
