Maurice Sylvester For taking on the running of the School Jazz Band Will Taylor For taking on the running of the School Guitar Ensemble Below is the priority programme for the year 11 after school revision classes. To avoid clashes with subjects, we have identified the priority subject for students to attend on each day - if their subject teacher does not require them to attend on their priority evening, then there may be other subjects that they can attend instead, and students and staff will communicate about these separately, having checked with the priority subject teacher first. Please note: It will not be possible for students to attend a non-priority revision session, if they are required to attend the priority subject, but just do not want to go. There will be a Saturday and holiday revision timetable being published for students to sign up to before February half term, and there will be further revision and interventions happening within school, however it is crucial that students take responsibility for their own revision too. On Tuesday 3rd March, we have Tim Benton coming in to do some work with year 11 on revision skills and techniques. Tim will also be doing a parents' presentation in the evening that all year 11 parents will be invited to. Please mark this date in your diaries - it is well worth it as many year 12 parents will testify to as they attended last year.
