Year 11 Mock Exam Timetable

16th January 2025 Marc Voltaire

Dear Parents and Families of Year 11 students,

Please find below the timetable for the mock exams, which will take place in the final two weeks of this half term, from Monday 3rd February to Friday 14th. This will be the final set of mock exams before the real GCSE examinations begin in May. We encourage all students in Year 11 to continue revising at home and to attend additional study sessions, such as Learning Lab after school and D6 each Saturday, to give them the best chance of success.

Final grades for this round of mock exams will be given to students on Tuesday 11th March, after they have been marked and moderated by teaching staff. However, as we are nearing the real exams and to allow us to make the best use of the remaining time this year, teaching staff will begin conducting mock feedback sessions before the 11th, so students will have an idea of how well they have performed and, most importantly, where they can improve even further.

After the half term, we will be inviting parents back in to join us for our final Teacher-Student Led Conference, where you can speak with your child’s teachers directly, and students can discuss their progress based on this round of mock exams. Further details on this will be communicated before the half term break.

If you have any questions or queries, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Best wishes,
Mr. Voltaire and the Year 11 Team

XP Outdoors – Learning Outside the Classroom

15th January 2025 Emma Watson

This week’s adventures led us on a delightful walk to the lake at Lakeside. It was heartwarming to hear students reflect on how fortunate they are to have access to such a beautiful space to visit and enjoy.

We briskly made our way to the lake, where we took a moment to soak in the peaceful surroundings on a crisp, chilly day. Students had the chance to do a bit of bird spotting and appreciate the tranquility before heading back to the hustle and bustle of school life.

We look forward to more fun and adventures of the coming weeks

Mrs Watson, Miss Wade, Miss Leatham and Mr Booth.

X31 Fieldwork THURSDAY 16th AFTERNOON

14th January 2025 Natalie Johnson

Fortunately, the weather is on our side this week, meaning fieldwork to Hyde Park Cemetery for X31 is back on!

We will be leaving school and heading to the cemetery by foot after lunch. We will return to school in time for the end of the day, so students will leave at normal time.

Please can you ensure that your child arrives to school wearing appropriate footwear and wearing a coat. We will be outside for the entirety of our visit and it is important students stay warm!

This fieldwork is in support of our Expedition 7.2 Dig Deep.

We appreciate your support in working with us through the many changes we have faced due to adverse weather.

C31 Immersion Week: Digging into history & piecing together what is coming next!

12th January 2025 Eleanor Wilkinson

C31 students have kicked off the term with an incredible first week of immersion! They have been working hard, getting smart, and being kind as they tried to figure out what their new expedition will be about. Many came close with their guesses, but the big reveal happened on Friday — and it was worth the wait!

Throughout the week, students engaged with new protocols, supported each other, and worked collaboratively. They also had the chance to interact with an expert in war artefacts, Michael and explore these artefacts, setting the stage for their upcoming expedition. It’s been awesome to see their teamwork, curiosity, and kindness as they navigated this exciting start to the year.

Check out the video below to see all the amazing work Year 7 has been doing. What a fantastic week!

Kicking off 2025 with a D6 session!

11th January 2025 Melissa Cocliff

Today marked the first D6 session of Year 11, and also of 2025!

A number of incredibly dedicated Y11 students attended this morning and worked on science, maths, history and art work. The focus was a sight to behold – some great independent, and some small group work! Keep up the excellent work, guys – and thank you to the staff who supported on a frosty Saturday morning!
