Thanks to everyone who took the time to complete the online survey about Tong’s website – we’ve had a great response.
If you filled it in on Monday (16th) or Tuesday (17th) – please send an email titled ‘Confirmation’ to thsego@ths.bradford.sch.uk to let us know you have completed it, as we experienced a technical fault which meant we were not able to capture your details during this period.
Over the next couple of weeks we’ll be reviewing your feedback and developing plans to improve the site. As part of this, we are organising a series of focus groups for students, staff and parents so we can find out even more about what you would like to see on an improved Tong website – if you would like to be a part of this please email thsjbs@ths.bradford.sch.uk
We are currently looking at ways to improve Tong High School’s website – and we want your help.
To do this we’re consulting with students, teachers and parents to find out what they think of our current website and what they would like to see improved.
The survey can be accessed here from 16thJanuary and must be completed before 2.15pm on 20th January – that’s next Friday. This website is for you so please take the time to help us get it just right.
There’s also a massive incentive on offer for people who complete the survey – they will automatically be entered into a prize draw to win an iPad. Please give us as much information as possible to help us create a website that’s fun, useful and enjoyable to use.
For further information please contact Mr Beresford at Tong High School or Acceleris

Over the last two weeks, students from the Writers community at Tong High School have been in charge of our lastest charity drive for the Teenage Cancer Trust. They managed to raise an amazing £1600 through their events.
As part of our end of term celebrations, Tong High School Teachers hosted “Tong Factor” and the students (and staff) enjoyed it so much we thought we would share it.
All we ask is if you enjoy the performances, please leave a comment, or even better you can donate to the Teenage Cancer Trust through the just giving link at http://www.justgiving.com/Tong-High-School

We also had one of our 6th form students, Olivia, partake in this event and she has given permission for her footage to be use to help raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust.
Thanks Olivia!
