Gradualtion from Year 10 to 11


Dear Year 10

The information on what you need to include in this folder can be found here R:\Subjects\Key Stage 4\Personal Development\Year 11\ROA.  There is a powerpoint to go through in tutor time together with the folder of templates that students can save into their own area to complete.

 

Students should fill up their ROA folders as follows:

  • Keep first pocket empty for Graduation booklet and checklist (Grad booklet given in Jan of Year 11)
  • Contents page
  • Personal Statement
  • CV
  • Then other documents, KS4 certificates and evidence of volunteering or involvement with outside clubs etc.  However things like their swim badge certificate at KS2 or 3 is not needed!

 

What do you do as a Tutor?

  • Keep a check on how ROA’s are going.  These are handed in March/April in Y11.
     
  • When signing the Check List off for Merit or Distinction evidence must be seen as a photo/letter for any volunteering/clubs etc and students to put this evidence in ROA.
     
  • DofE = Distinction if signed off on checklist by MAU.  
     

This Year’s Graduation ceremony for current Y11’s will be on Wednesday 8th May 2020 at the Effingham Hotel and you are more than welcome to come along and see it.

How exciting for you as we prepare your now for life beyond year 11

Wonderful Wednesday Tutor Time - Preparing for the Year 11 Entry Exams...

Dear Year 10


What did you think about yesterdays assembly?


How amazing that a deaf girl can learn to speak and be so driven to do so very well.


Once Zac has done our weekly 'Uniform Police' and 'Equipment Check' we can start to focus our minds on the Year 11 Entry Exams.


This is week 24.  Only 16 weeks before this year is done.  For year 11 they only have 5 weeks of lessons left and 5 weeks to revise before their first exams before the May half term in 2020 and after the May half term before their longest summer holiday ever.


Anyway here is your first resource to get you in the right frame of mind for the next chapter in your GCSE journey.


Surrounding yourself with the right support and building capacity to do more than just cope!

Thought Tor The Day How do we stop bullying in school?

Dear Year 10

Has anyone ever been bullied in school?

Has anyone ever been bullied out of school?

Has anyone ever not been bullied?

Why then do we allow such insidious behaviour such as this to carry on?

Following on from yesterdays assembly.

What are you going to do about it?
