Editor's Notes
- RP will be leading the session later tonight on learning revision strategies
- WSP – want parents to go away feeling fully informed from what to expect this year. Subject overviews of each subject area for the autumn term, will email out in Jan and May. Passing to KR then SU, then RP (don’t introduce)
- Grades look different Reasons for that: more differentiation at middle and upper levels Also because the exams are not comparable
- 5. DW – along lines of ‘that is what your child can expect and expectation we have, this is what parents can expect in terms of reporting and communication…..’ We want to go beyond annual reporting requirements by: read bullet point For Year 11 – standards maintained – as I said in assembly we want to work with young adults, not be picking up for uniform, not attending study club etc
- Please do not sit on a problem – communicate with appropriate member of staff, we’d rather know than read about it on facebook
