Ways to Success What’s on offer and who to ask

Saturday Club The LRC is open every Saturday during term-time from 10am to 2 pm and is staffed by two adults, usually two teachers. Students have access to computers and to support material provided by subjects. General guidance is available, along with peace and quiet. Students can come and go as they please, but must sign in and out. Light refreshments are provided. Contact Miss Cunningham for more details.

Key Words Booklets Every student in Y11 has received a Key Words booklet, which has been compiled by teachers. The booklet contains the key words of which every student requires knowledge and understanding. Perfect for parents to test their offspring! If additional copies are needed, see Mrs Barry

Letts Essential Study Skills Every Y11 student was given a copy of Letts’ Essential Study Skills book, which gives general guidance for students (and parents) on how to prepare for exams. Replacement copies can be purchased from Mrs Barry for £2.

Coursework Catch-up Day January 30 th 2008 On January 30 th,students who are behind with coursework will be in school to catch up, supported by teachers.

Students who are up-to-date with their work will be given permission to work at home or in the LRC. Full details to follow.

These can be purchased from the School Office for £2.50 each. Flippers are small bunches of paper on which key words can be kept. Students have found them useful for revision and for testing each other. These can be purchased from the School Office for 50p each.
