Matt Allman, Headteacher, said: “The students have been guided on what to expect, have revision materials provided, have after-school and Saturday School boosters, and have been taught well. These exams are all about the students getting their eye in and lining things up for the summer.”
Benjamin Franklin, one of the Foundling Fathers of the USA, said: “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”
