Year 11 Option Block Intervention Sessions and Art/Graphics Examinations On Monday and Tuesday next week, a third of the Year 11 students will be off timetable sitting their Art and Graphics exam which is worth 60% of their GCSE. It has been agreed the remainder of the Year 11 students will have a 2 hour Option block intervention programme in place for those two days.
The intervention programme will allow the teachers to review key topics which were not answered very well in the PPEs, give time for the completion of outstanding non-exam assessments or continue teaching the syllabus in those two hours. Ms Hagel, KS4 Achievement Co-ordinator Final Day Arrangements – Friday 21st December 2018 The final day of term will be a non-uniform day. We encourage
students to wear a Christmas jumper to support 9H Christmas
