Invoice fraud can create significant financial and operational disruption for schools, particularly when criminals exploit trusted supplier relationships or busy internal processes.
Our latest #WakeUpWednesday guide supports schools in recognising the warning signs and strengthening fraud awareness across teams.
The guide explores:
• How convincing invoices and small email changes can be used to mislead staff
• The risks linked to urgent payment requests and supplier impersonation
• Warning signs such as unusual wording, mismatched details and unexpected bank changes
• Practical steps including verification, invoice cross-checking, dual approval and prompt reporting
With clear, actionable advice, this resource helps schools build confidence and reduce the risk of costly payment fraud.

Message from Chief Inspector Mahmood for Redbridge, Barking and Dagenham said:
“We would like to encourage parents and carers to have open conversations with young people about the risks of open water. These conversations are important because many open water incidents are preventable and understanding the risks and knowing how to respond can help save lives.”
Stay out of the water and act safely to help someone in trouble, don’t jump in, instead, follow this advice:
Call 999 without a delay and request the appropriate emergency service.
In a large open area use What 3 Words to provide your exact location to emergency services.
If possible, throw a floating object, such as a lifebuoy, and encourage the person to float on their back, while help is on the way.
If it is safe to do so, extend a pole, branch or similar object from a secure position.
Do not enter the water unless you are properly trained and equipped.
Please take the time to have this conversation today – it could save a life tomorrow.@Caterham.High.School

Attendance is not optional - It is the difference between falling behind and moving ahead.
When students miss school, they do not just miss lessons - they miss learning. Even a few days off quickly add up, and the impact is real:
📉 Students with poor attendance are far more likely to drop a grade - or several at GCSE and Sixth Form.
📈 Students who attend regularly achieve higher results, stronger progress and leave with more choices for their future.
👨👩👧 Parents & Carers: Every absence matters. Strong attendance now protects your child’s long term success - their grades, their confidence and their future pathways.
🎒 Students: Your future is being built right now. Every lesson you attend moves you closer to your goals. Every lesson you miss puts obstacles in your way.
Show up. Stay focused. Protect your chances.
Excellent attendance is the expectation, not the exception.
Your grades. Your future. Your move.

🏅 Sports Leaders Supporting Community Sport 🏅
On Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday this week, our fantastic Caterham High School Sports Leaders from Years 8 and 9 were proud to support Gearies Primary School with their Sports Day at Clayhall Park.
Our students played a key role in helping the event run smoothly, showing outstanding leadership, organisation and enthusiasm throughout. It was brilliant to see them working with younger pupils, building strong connections, and creating a fun, inclusive and engaging experience for everyone involved.
Well done to all our Sports Leaders for representing Caterham High School so positively and making a real difference in the local community! 👏
