Y11 Steps to Success_Thursday 14th September 2023
Dear Parents/Carers
Our mission is to give people the best chance of success and with Year 11 being less than a year away from sitting their exams, we want to ensure you have all of the information needed to support your child to succeed.
It has become an annual tradition for us to welcome Year 11 parents / carers into the Academy for an evening with the senior team dedicated to the year ahead for our students. Parents/Carers who have previously attended have provided feedback that they felt informed and reassured as a result of attending the session.
This year we would like to invite you into the Academy on Thursday 14th September. We will run two sessions (please book into one session only):
- Session 1: 17:00 start (arrival from 16:50)
- Session 2: 18:00 start (arrival from 17:50)
The session will consist of a short presentation from Mr O’Callaghan and myself where we will cover:
- Learning from last year’s Year 11 students – what would they do differently?
- After Academy Intervention
- Supporting your child’s revision and GCSE preparation
- Mock exams calendar
- Purchasing resource guides
- Post 16 information and guidance
- How to support your child’s mental health and wellbeing
You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have related to supporting your child with their GCSEs.
As we have limited seating, please book ahead using the link below, selecting 1 ticket per attendee. The evening is aimed at parents/carers, however, please encourage your child to attend with you.
Book your session here:
16:50pm arrival for 17.00pm start: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/715925792317?aff=oddtdtcreator

We strongly encourage all parents/carers to attend this event to help give their child their best chance of success next summer.
I look forward to meeting you in person on the evening.
Yours Sincerely
Rebecca Tushingham | Assistant Principal
