In Y10, we’ve been discussing the importance of revising early and so we’ve been building active recall and revision into our lessons to make sure we don’t forget the poems we studied back in Year 9. These students came out top of the class in their recall, showing fantastic knowledge, focus, and enthusiasm for the anthology.

A huge well done to Jude, Arlo, Jolie, Ella, and Edie, who have been absolute poetry superstars this week! I’m so proud of how hard they’re all working, it’s lovely to see their confidence and understanding growing with every lesson.
