Year 9 Update – 23 Feb 2024

I hope you all had a wonderful break. It was lovely to hear how students spent their time away from school.

Year 9 started the week off with their final Options Assembly delivered by Mr Ruffles. The GCSE Options form will go live on Monday 11th March and will close on Friday 16th March. If you child is still unsure of which options to choose, please could I encourage you to reach out to Heads of Departments directly for support.

The week ended with an assembly from Mrs Brami to prepare them for Careers Day next Friday. Mrs Brami is looking forward to handing out gift card prizes (individual prizes) and Krispy Kreme doughnuts (form prize) to the best and most detailed careers booklets. The winners will be announced on 1st March.

Upcoming dates and events:
  • 1st March – Year 9 Careers Day (workshops, assemblies and careers fair)
  • 12th March – Learning Review Day 2
  • 20th March – INSET Day
