Dear Parents/Carers,

I am writing to you to give you some information about the up and coming mock examination period.

Mock Exams

  • Mock exams will run from Monday 15th May to Friday 26th May. 
  • Students will sit a maximum two papers per subject.
  • Please click here to view all examination information including timetable and guidance on the topics to be assessed within each subject. Please make sure your child refers to this guidance as it will help them to effectively prepare for these examinations.
  • Parents/carers will be informed of mock exam results via email.
  • The purpose of the mock examinations is to give an indication of progress made by students during Year 12.
  • The mock examination results, and results from other class-based assessments will be used in discussions with students about future pathways and inform, but not determine, their UCAS predicted grades.

Reports

Parents/carers of Year 12 students will receive an end of year report and there will be a Parent Consultation Evening on Tuesday 4th July from 4.30pm to 7pm.

It is expected that all parents/carers will wish to attend to discuss their child’s progress.

I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate how impressed I have been with Year 12 this year. It has been an extremely busy year and students have continued to demonstrate resilience and positive attitudes throughout.  It has been particularly pleasing to see students being so proactive in their personal and academic development. It is important that their efforts are maintained.

As always, please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any concerns or queries.

Kind regards

 

Mrs McGowan

Head of Year 12
