Year 11 GCSE Countdown

Our Year 11 students begin their GCSE's in just 23 days!


This week our students have taken part in a History Conference on Thursday 20th April with AQA which focused on the topics that will feature in the GCSE exams (Medicine through Time and Germany). The students were shown ways to revise, content of the scheme of work and the best ways to tackle exam questions.


Miss Wagner-Lees has been working with our German students who have now completed their Vocabexpress assignments, well done and keep up the hard work.


Below are some pictures from the History conference.
