New Girl
New Girl depicts a worst-case scenario which explores the difficulties a young girl faces when starting a new school. Pupils from Falinge Park High School have created a short film which is designed to encourage pupils, teachers and parents/carers to look at key areas in Sophia’s story. Pupils want viewers to look at those areas which could have been addressed sooner so that we all make a positive difference to a vulnerable pupil. The end credits show optimism and hope and the film is designed so that it encourages debate.
In creating this film, 12 pupils worked for 9 months in researching mental health and the impact of cyber bullying on young people. They worked with professionals from #Thrive and CAMHS to explore how young people can, and indeed do, react to situations they find themselves in. They worked with Parvez Qadir to create this film which was premiered at the Odeon cinema.

Opening Doors; Unlocking Potential
Welcome to Falinge Park.
Our school has a supportive, family ethos where everyone is encouraged to achieve their potential. We build positive relationships, celebrate diversity and promote tolerance. We believe good manners and respect for each other are of the utmost importance and expect the highest standards of behaviour. We work together in collaboration and are committed to furthering our learning. We believe that to unlock potential in all our children and all our staff our core objective is simply:
TO CREATE A COMPELLING LEARNING EXPERIENCE.
We do this by believing in people.

Our Curriculum at Falinge Park High School
A curriculum is more than just a block of subjects or a series of lessons that fulfil the National Curriculum requirements. At Falinge Park High School we believe the curriculum influences everything the pupils do: from the moment they wake up in the morning and put on their school tie; the way they conduct themselves on the way to school; the experiences they have of learning both in lessons and in the wider opportunities they benefit from; to learning outside the classroom, through visiting speakers or the extensive trips and visits we offer; to how they succeed post-16 and the choices they make.
