Easter Revision Sessions
In the first week of the Easter holidays over 150 Year 11 students took part in GCSE revision sessions in a number of subjects. Sessions alsoran for Year 12 and Year 13 students preparing for A-level exams. These provided a valuable opportunity for students to focus on examtechnique, practice questions and revising key topics, skills and subject knowledge. I am particularly grateful to the staff for preparingand delivering sessions in the holidays and to the students for participating actively.A number of sessions continue to run this half-term in the run up to exams at lunchtime and after-school and during revision lessons. Iencourage students to make the most of these opportunities available to them. These are of course no substitute for the work studentswill need to engage in outside school and students should now have adopted the habits of revising regularly according to a revisiontimetable to secure the best possible chances of success this summer – good luck!
