Year 11 February 2023 Half Term Revision Schedule

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR YEAR 11 PARENTS – February Half Term Revision Schedule

Dear Parents/Carers 

Thanks to the dedication of our staff members we are able to offer the following revision during February half term. These will go a long way to supporting your child during the build up to the Summer examinations.

Please ask your child to discuss these sessions with their class teacher, to ensure they attend at the correct time. Invites will be arranged via our SOCs platform to support the attendance of these sessions.

Year 11 Mock Exams, and Results Evening

As you are aware, our Year 11 students will be undertaking their second round of mock examinations from 27 February to 10th March. Please use the schedule given at the following link to assist your child in their preparations for these important examinations. Please note that attendance to these examinations are of the utmost importance as no mop-up days will be planned. Any exams missed will need to be caught up in students’ own time.

We will be offering booster sessions before and during school to provide extra support and intervention before these mock examinations. During the exam periods students should arrive at 08:00 to attend the extra support.

These will mirror those offered during the Summer schedule and provide students with some last minute exam tips and hints from their teachers. If students do not study these subjects they will continue to follow their regular timetable. 

Our staff will mark, moderate and quality assure these assessments before we share the results with students. Following the success of the Year 11 ‘results day’ event we will once again share these with students and parents/carers. This will take place on Wednesday 29 March 2023 between 3:00pm and 5:00pm. 

This event will be face-to-face and will provide a valuable opportunity to discuss your child’s progress in their GCSE and BTEC subjects following their mock examinations.  Students will be able to collect their mock results from 3:00pm in the Restaurant and you will be able to accompany your child, so that you can discuss the results during the consultation with your son’s/daughter’s pastoral teams.

Year 11 Reports

Module 4 reports will be available for all parents/carers to view at the end of module three. All reports will be placed onto My Child At School (MCAS). If you have any issues in accessing this platform, please contact the admin staff of the relevant college.

Reach for the Stars

Our bespoke reward programme for Year 11 will continue into module three. At the time of writing, over 5,000 reward points have been awarded to students in module two and three, which is a fantastic achievement.

Module 4 Revision Schedule

During Module 4 all ebacc subject areas will offer targeted intervention. Heads of Departments will decide these groups based on the recent mock exam results. These groups will be invite only and designed to support pupil progress for the summer exams. They will follow the schedule below and revision will start from the 20th February. 

To support parents/carers further, key information for Year 11 parents can be found on the Academy website using the following link.

May I take this opportunity to wish you and your family a safe break.

Yours faithfully 

Mr M Gore
