Year 10 Mock Examinations Letter

As we approach the end of the academic year, I would like to inform you that Year 10 students will undertake ‘Mock Exams’ across the curriculum subjects. The Mock Examinations will take place in Module 6 between the 20th & 30th June. The Mock Examinations will be conducted in the exam hall and are designed to further prepare all students for their GCSE examinations. Please take a moment to review the Mock Examination Timetable below. Students will be issued with their own versions closer to the Mock Examination Series.

Our students will experience examinations as close to the real experience as possible. Students will receive an assembly prior to the exams which will outline the expectations. Examination papers will then be marked, moderated and the scores collated. The Mock Results will then be shared with students and parents in our reports on the 14th July. The results will provide students with a clear indication of their examination grades. The mock data will then be used to set target grades and plan the Year 11 curriculum with opportunities to exceed these targets. The current grades can also be used to inform POST-16 decisions as students begin the application process for 6th Form, College courses and Apprenticeship placements.
