“Period 6” Initiative

From Deputy Head, Dr Chard: “This term, we’ve had 186 students from Year 11 invited to period 6 sessions after school, to brush up on key topics and spend time on their coursework. All those with good attendance had their names put into a wheel and three prize winners were chosen at random. Congratulations go to Joseph, Abubakar and Kaili who each won £20 Arndale vouchers. Abubakar said the extra engineering sessions had ‘been a good help’ and Kaili said attending Health and Social Care had been ‘really helpful; we’ve been doing lots of practice questions’. Joseph has been attending the Enterprise and Marketing sessions and said ‘I’ve done the majority of my coursework now’. Well done to all Year 11 students for their hard work at the Period 6 sessions so far and thank you to the forty members of staff involved.”
