An update about Year 11 support

Dear Families,

Does your child struggle with independent work?

Do they struggle to meet deadlines?

Do they find getting organised difficult?

We have solutions to support your child in this important exam year and encourage you to discuss the options below with your child to be proactive about preparing them for the challenging exam season less than one year away.

KS4 Supervision

When: 3pm – 4pm, Tuesdays and Wednesdays

Where: Room M14

What: ‘Supervision’ for Year 10 and 11 students supports them doing independent study and revision. Teachers book students into supervision sessions to support keeping up with deadlines and vital revision in preparation for their mocks and real exams. Supervision is run by members of the Senior Leadership Team.

You will receive a notification on the Class Charts app if your child has been booked in to supervision. If your child fails to attend, they will be booked into detention.

Period 6/Masterclass sessions

When: 3pm – 3.45pm

Where: Various rooms depending on subject – will be communicated in Class Charts messages

What: Most subjects will offer additional Period 6/Masterclass sessions after the timetabled day, to support year 11 students to consolidate their knowledge and skills in exam subjects. Any student can attend.

You will receive a notification on the Class Charts app if your child has been booked in to a period 6/masterclass. If your child fails to attend, they will be booked into detention.

Study Support

When: Monday, 3pm – 4pm

Where: Room DT1

Mrs Louise Powell (Head of Year 11) and Miss Beth Webber (Year 11 Pastoral Manager) run sessions once a week where students can attend in order to have somewhere quiet to complete homework, revise and complete other independent learning activities with support from their year team.


We hope that this information is useful to you.

Thank you for your support.

Yours faithfully,

Simon Wade
