Year 11 Core Mocks

After the February half term, Year 11 students will sit their second and final set of mock exams, which will focus on core subjects only (English, Maths and Science). Staff will be setting revision-specific homework to help students in their preparation for this. This is in addition to students completing their own revision in the evenings and over the break. Assemblies and form time will continue to be utilised to share best practice for revision, as well as looking at motivation and building exam resilience.

Ofsted Report

As you may be aware, Ofsted visited us in December 2022 for an ungraded inspection. Ordinarily, a school wouldn’t expect another visit for 4-5 years. However, the inspection team found enough evidence that the quality of education provided by Lymm High School is now outstanding. This means that they have recommended a further, graded, inspection to take place within a year or two. This was the best possible outcome available to us and we are delighted that the progress of the last few years has been recognised in this way.

Wednesday 1st February 2023

As you may be aware, Wednesday 1st February is already scheduled as an INSET day at Lymm High School so the proposed national teachers’ strike won’t affect any students on this day.

We’ll be in touch nearer the time about the later proposed strike dates if we do anticipate any significant disruption.

It is a rather dynamic situation at the moment with, amongst other factors, different teaching unions potentially re-balloting members and we ask for your understanding that things might change before the second planned day of strikes (Tuesday 28th February).
