Help with GCSEs
The next two years are going to be really challenging for our students who started their GCSEs in September 2012!
They will need to get to grips with coursework, Controlled Assessments and will be taking all their exams at the end of Year 11. Students will be trying to work out what it all means and will only be able to do really well with a great deal of help and support from parents/guardians.
So following September's Induction Sessions, the documents below will hopefully help you understand the processes and provide support for your child.
If you would like any further information please contact the Year 10 pastoral team at school.
More regular updates are provided on our Exams Noticeboard.
