We’re now entering the second half of the exam season, and we want to say a big “Well done!” to all our Year 11 and Year 13 pupils for your hard work and dedication so far. Keep up the great effort!
As a reminder, Year 11 pupils will only be required to attend school when they have an exam. If they wish to attend a lesson for a subject where the exam has not taken place, timetabled lessons will continue to run throughout the exam period until the final exam in each subject has been completed. Lessons in non-examined subjects, including Core PE and Core RE will no longer continue.
Pre-exam briefings will continue for the remainder of the examination period; a reminder that morning briefings start at 8.30am and afternoon briefings start at 12.30pm.
Wishing you all the best in your exams this week! You’ve got this!
