Welcome to our new Year 11 cohort
A very warm welcome to our new Year 11 students and families.
I am delighted to introduce myself as your Head of Year and am incredibly excited to work with you throughout what will be one of the most important and rewarding years of your school journey. Year 11 is a year of challenge, growth, and achievement, and my role is to ensure that every student receives the support, guidance, and opportunities they need to succeed.
As we prepare for September, I would strongly encourage all students to make use of the Summer Revision Guide and Summer Task Booklet. These resources have been carefully designed by our subject teams to help you consolidate key knowledge, identify areas for development, and build confidence before the start of the new academic year.
Historically, students who actively engage with these summer resources are better prepared for the demands of Year 11 and often make a stronger start in their Mock 1 examinations. The work you put in now will help create valuable momentum that can carry you through the year ahead.
If you would like to introduce yourself or arrange an introductory meeting during Term 6, please feel free to email me. I would be delighted to meet you and discuss any questions, aspirations, or concerns you may have before September.
Most importantly, when the summer holidays arrive, take time to relax, spend time with family and friends, and recharge. Year 11 is a marathon, not a sprint, and arriving in September refreshed and motivated is just as important as the preparation you complete over the summer.
Should you need any support or guidance over the summer period, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
I look forward to working with you all and helping you achieve your very best in Year 11.
Mr Murphy
Vice Principal
