Please see the important letter from Mrs Rudge, regarding the year 11 trial exam results day (19th December 2023).

Dear Parents, 

I hope this letter finds you well. We wanted to inform you that the trial examination results for your child will be distributed on Tuesday, 19th December. These results serve as an important milestone, reflecting the hard work your child has put into their studies. 

Our aim is to provide a assessment that helps guide their academic progress and identifies the next steps they need to take in the lead up to their GCSEs. 

We encourage you to take the time to discuss the results with your child, recognising their achievements and addressing any challenges they may be facing. Additionally, please contact us if you have any questions or concerns about the results. 

Thank you for your continued support.

We hope that you and your families are able to have an enjoyable Christmas. 

Kind regards,

Julie Rudge
Headteacher
