Welcome to the Year 11 Page!

Year 11 have their second round of Mock Exams between Monday February 27th and Friday March 17th. 

Why Mock Exams? 

During Year 11, our students sit two mock exam sessions (in November and in March). These allow students to get used to the final assessments for each of their subjects, gives them feedback on how they are doing and how effective their revision has been, and gives us as their teachers a snapshot of progress which is used for re-teaching and interventions. In addition to this, research has shown it can hugely reduce anxiety for the real examinations. 

Mock exams allow us to get an accurate picture of where our students are now, and help us in making a plan to support their progress before the final assessments.
