In only 17 school days, the main external examination period will begin. We encourage all of our Yr13 students to maximise their school day, by working in school from 7:30am-5pm.
The following rooms are available for study
7:30-8am – N block study rooms / Upper and Lower hex
8am-8:45 – Form rooms
All day until 3pm – library / upper hex for silent revision
3pm-5pm – N block study rooms / upper hex
Snacks will be provided for students staying after school to revise.
Students should get into the habit of arriving to school early, to prepare them for the summer exam season, where they will need to be seated in the exam venue at 8:30am. Arriving early also helps to secure a parking spot in the car park!
We recommend that students pause paid work now to focus on their revision. This will give them the additional time to relax and ensure they look after their mental well being too.
As a parent, there are many ways you can support your child through the exam season, see the suggestions from the NHS here. Help your child beat exam stress – NHS (www.nhs.uk)
If you are in any way worried about your child, please do not hesitate to contact a member of the sixth form team, we are all here to support you.
Many thanks
The Sixth Form Team
