The Heads of Sixth Form - Summer 2 |
| Our students continue to work hard, even attending the extra revision sessions outside of lessons. Despite all this, they still managed to find time to donate enough goodies for the Syrian children’s appeal to fill 11 shoeboxes.

From The Office | REVISION SESSIONS FOR STUDENTS
All subject staff have identified time in lunchtimes and after school where they are running revision sessions for AS and A2 exams. These have been put into timetables which are on the notice boards in both Common Rooms. We hope that the students will attend and take advantage of these invaluable sessions.
MANAGING EXAM STRESS #2
Rachael Williams came into assembly for the second part of her presentation on dealing with exam stress. Last week we learned about the physical elements of stress, how they can affect students in exam conditions and how students can combat them. In today’s presentation, Rachael spoke about recent studies which have shown how students can access memory during exams and she is emailing out to all students a 3 minute exercise which will help them.
SHOE BOX 4 SYRIA
A huge “Thank You” from us all for all your wonderful contributions for the Shoe box 4 Syria ‘Make a Child Smile’ charity. We managed to fill eleven shoeboxes with your donations and these will certainly make super presents for the children who receive them.
FUTURE ELITE SPORTS
Sophie Watkiss from Future Elite Sports came to talk to the Sixth Form this week about sports courses in Higher Education. Future Elite have great success in placing students into American and Canadian Universities. More information is available on their website - http://www.futureelitesports.com/
YEAR 12 WORK EXPERIEINCE
Mrs Rogers wanted to remind Year 12 to book their University Open Days for after their exams (please let the office know when you will be out of school) and also to research any work experience that they could do during the study period . The link on “success at school” has been sent to all students and can be seen on the careers website.

PICK UP AND DROP OFF - ADDITIONAL ON ROAD PARKING AVAILABLE
Parents will be pleased to hear that new parking restrictions on College Avenue have provided the school with additional short term parking (30 minutes). Both sides of the road are now available for short term parking. For the safety of our pupils please can parents drop off and pick up on College Avenue, (entry via the Nursery entrance gate) and avoid driving into the school, particularly the front at our very busy times. |
