Helpful advice to prepare for GCSE exams.

A letter has been released addressed to parents and carers of Year 11 students regarding the process of preparing for GCSE’s. For details, click here.

As your child begins their KS4 years (Years 10 & 11), we want to do all we can to support you in helping them to complete effective and vital revision at home. The image below shows a roadmap of all of the key milestones for both Year 10 and Year 11 students during the academic year, as they traverse through their GCSE journey. During the course of the academic year we will hold evenings for parents, carers and students offering guidance and support and we urge all parents and carers to attend these useful and informative events.  

During these two years, your child will be expected to use GCSEPod as a study resource.

GCSEPod is an online study platform and is the perfect resource to help your child learn, retain and recall all the information needed to achieve their GCSE goals.

GCSEPod provides 3-5 minute bursts of audio-visual, teacher written learning which can help to reinforce and consolidate key GCSE topics covered in lessons. Experts read and explain everything clearly including all the right facts, quotes, keywords, dates and diagrams on screen.

GCSEPod isn’t just for revision, it’s to help expand your child’s subject knowledge. If they are struggling with a piece of homework, they can search for the topic on GCSEPod and use the Pods as an additional resource. GCSEPod can be used on a computer, Smartphones and Tablets. To learn more about how your child can access GCSEPod, click here.

The following information on these webpages have been created by our teachers to help parents, carers and students get an understanding of what is expected during the GCSE journey and how to ensure that your child gets the best head start as they take their first steps into becoming a young adult. Please consult the age appropriate area for your child.
