The Year 11 Countdown Begins

With less 65 school days to go until the first GCSE exam, year 11 students have started the new term with a series of focused interventions.  These interventions close gaps, deepen the classroom learning and aim to help every student to achieve their potential.

 

For the last two weeks, year 11s have been ‘Cracking the Core’ during some CDC sessions.  Organised on a carousel basis around the core subjects, students enjoy an addition 20 minutes learning in the morning.   Past students have said that Cracking the Core was one of the interventions that had the biggest impact on their core subject achievement.

 

This week, year 11s started their afterschool target revision programme.  Attendance and focus during these sessions has been outstanding, demonstrating the commitment of our students and their determination to achieve their very best results this August.

 

The programme to support our students will continue to develop and build throughout the term.
