Support for all Year 11 students

A Message to students
We believe that your Year 11 group has the potential to achieve outstanding results. We also know what a difficult and stressful time Year 11 can be. The support we are offering here will run alongside the work going on in your lessons and will help to boost your performance this summer.
However, nothing will help you more than regular attendance at lessons where your teachers will increasingly focus on preparing you for the exams by doing exam practice and teaching you exam techniques.
All statistical evidence at a national, local and school level shows that where attendance is 95% or higher, students are more likely to achieve their targets.
Please remember that you will not achieve the results you hope for without putting in the extra time at home to revise. Buying revision guides will achieve very little if you do not actually read them!
A message to parents
You do not need anyone to remind you what an important year this is for your child. We want to work with you to ensure that your child achieves their very best. Please contact us if you have any concerns about your child’s progress. Year 11 is too important for you to wait and we do not have another Parents Evening to ask questions. For specific subject queries, please contact the relevant subject teacher or Director of Learning. Mr Porteous can answer any general questions regarding information for Year 11’s.
