Welcome to this week's newsletter
Last week we mentioned about our values of empathy and humanity being shown in bucket loads linked to the crisis in Ukraine. Today they have really has shone through with our non-uniform day and supplies to support the people of Ukraine. Thank you to everyone in our school and wider community who have pulled together to really make this happen.
This week we had our first face-to-face event in a couple of years in the form of our Key Stage 4 Preferences Evening. We had a fantastic turnout so thank you to everyone who attended. Thank you also to the families who left feedback for us. We will be reviewing this in the coming days and weeks. The videos for each subject are still on our website.
Monday 21 March marks the start of the trial examinations period, and it is crucial for Years 11 and 13 to be revising and using the resources that are available such as the Tassomai app.
Have a great weekend.
Glenn Martin and Lee Towers, Interim Co-Principals
Trial examinations
As you are probably aware from previous communications, we will be running a second set of trial examinations for Year 11 and Year 13 this year which will take place during the weeks beginning 21 March and 28 March. We are also running trial examinations for Year 12 in subjects where they will take a real external exam in the summer. You can find timetables for these exams via the links below.
Thank you for your continued support with preparing students for their examinations this summer.
School laptops amnesty
Please can any laptops that were lent out to students during lockdown be returned to the school as soon as possible. Laptops should be returned to main reception.
Manor Maths Challenges
Taking inspiration from Area 51 and working out the likelihood of extraterrestrial life, the theme for this week's edition is probability.
