We are running our final set of Mock GCSE Exams straight after the February half-term break between Monday 24 February and Tuesday 4 March.

These mocks are designed to help our students to gain experience with their looming GCSE papers and to sport their areas of strengths and weaknesses as they head into their final revision. Elsewhere our teachers can spot gaps in students’ knowledge and make sure these gaps are filled before the Summer.

The morning Mock Exams start at 9.00am to ensure that students can get their break / meal.

The afternoon Mock Exams start at 1.00pm to ensure that students can catch their bus ride home and parent pick-ups.

Sophie Grigg, Assistant Headteacher, said: “These Mocks are very much a fantastic opportunity for students to ready themselves for their final exams – if these are done with all due seriousness then the summer becomes a whole lot easier. Teachers are providing extensive revision materials and we are supporting with advice, guidance and support throughout. The end is close and we are confident that the overwhelming majority of our students will have plenty to celebrate come the August Results Day.”
