Year 11 Mantra "Be selfish for my grade"
Dear Students and Families,
As we approach the Mock 1 examination period, this is an important opportunity for every student to demonstrate the progress they have made so far and identify areas to strengthen ahead of the final GCSE exams.
Mocks are not just a practice run – they are a vital part of the preparation process. They allow students to experience real exam conditions, manage time effectively, and build confidence in applying their knowledge under pressure.
Over the coming weeks, students should:
Follow their revision timetable and dedicate focused time to each subject.
Use the resources and guides provided by departments on this page to help structure revision.
Attend after-school support sessions, which are designed to offer targeted help and additional access to subject teachers.
Balance work and wellbeing – effective revision includes regular breaks, sleep, and healthy routines.
We know that success in exams is built on consistency, effort, and resilience. Every revision session, every question practised, and every bit of feedback acted upon will make a difference.
