All Yr 11 students are encouraged to come along to period 6 on a Tuesday & Wednesday. It is a great opportunity to get some extra work done in their chosen subjects. Last year's GCSE students have said that Period 6 and early revision was a key factor in their exam success. pic.twitter.com/uvrCRgb71v

My favorite quote from this evening “I’ve got six children and I’ve seen a lot of headteachers do these speeches, you did brilliantly!”. Thank you to the parents who came and supported the school and their child this evening. Families and schools working together!
