Read MoreYear 11 REST-REVISE-REPEAT
Published 21/05/24As Year 11 prepare for the final weeks of their GCSE examinations, it is important this half-term that they have a balance between REST and REVISION. Students should plan revision every day for the remaining exams. This half term will be different to any of their previous half terms as revision is essential. However, equally important is rest each day, breaking down revision into chunks.
Mr Allen's advice:
- Create a study routine
- Don’t compare yourself to others.
- Set attainable goals
- Study in short bursts every day
- Exercise once a day - even if it's just a walk outside
- Inspire yourself
- Reward yourself
- Get enough sleep
The first exam after half term is Maths paper 2 at 9.00am on Monday 3rd June.

Read MoreCricket Cookies
Published 18/05/24Year 10 had the opportunity to make some cookies from cricket flour. These crickets are 'reared' in the UK and milled into flour for the food industry. They contain 70% protein, so they are considered more sustainable and environmentally friendlier than other sources of protein on the market. While they will be unlikely to completely replace traditional sources of protein, they will play an important part in helping feed a growing world population that requires good sources of protein in their diet. Are these farms and jobs of the future? Cricket Farming | Bugvita
