Welcome to Slough and Eton! I’m Miss Matson, your Head of Year.
Starting secondary school can feel like a big step, but you won’t be doing it alone. I’m here to support you every step of the way! Over the next five years, my colleagues and I will guide you to become the best version of yourself.
Throughout your journey at school, you’ll be introduced to a wide range of subjects, take part in extracurricular activities, and get involved in events that will help you make the most of school life. I encourage you to approach each new opportunity with a positive attitude, embodying our motto: Work Hard, Be Nice, No Excuses. I can't wait to start working with you.
I am delighted to introduce myself as the Head of Year 8. Having been a History teacher for the past four years, I have had the privilege of supporting and guiding students through their learning journeys. Now, as Head of Year 8, and with Miss Claydon as deputy head, I am excited to extend this support beyond the classroom, Year 8 is a crucial time of growth, and my aim is to create a positive, nurturing environment where every student feels valued and motivated to achieve their best.
I have been proud to celebrate the successes of our current cohort of Year 8 students, over the last year, since they joined Slough and Eton, through a wealth of activities both in and out of school and look forward to continuing to do so this academic year!
I am excited to be stepping in to the role of Head of Year 9! I joined the school in 2023 as the KS3 Curriculum Leader for Religious Education and have loved every moment working with our fantastic students. This is my second year as being Head of Year 9, and I am confident that I will help the students along their first steps in their GCSE's.
This year, alongside my Deputy, Miss Woods, our focus will be on helping students choose their options. I am here to make sure students feel confident about their next steps and understand how important regular attendance and good punctuality is for success. I look forward to working with students, parents and staff to make this year a success
