Further details on exams and grades

  • Categories Uncategorised
  • Date 23/03/2020
Dear all,
With the school effectively shut for most students and the GCSE exams cancelled, Year 11 presents its own particular challenge to us all.
We are aware that the large void now created for the students does need to be addressed and we feel it is important to look at two key issues. Firstly ensuring that Year 11 do not disconnect with their learning habits; Secondly, that we offer some preparation for their September progression.

 

As you may be aware we are awaiting further guidance about the detail from the Department for Education and the Awarding Bodies regarding the summer 2020 examinations.The link is here

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/further-details-on-exams-and-grades-announced

Further details on exams and grades announced – GOV.UK
The exam regulator, Ofqual, and exam boards will work with teachers to provide grades to students whose exams have been cancelled this summer, following our actions to slow the spread of coronavirus.
www.gov.uk

Students’ predicted grades are likely to be used for their data to be submitted to the DfE alongside other yet to be decided information.

 

Yr 11 will be set some online work – they need to keep their hand in and challenge themselves. We do know that if they are not happy with our predicted grade they may well have an opportunity to do a test in the Autumn. Therefore they should not disconnect from their learning. A timetable of work will be followed as outlined on the table below, this work will commence from Wednesday with emails explaining the detail arriving each day by 9am.

As for preparing for College – particularly A Levels , students will be signposted to their 6th form providers advance reading lists and pre-course work, this may not happen immediately, but will develop in due course.

Alongside of this work, Students can join in with the Mr Brookes workout every day at 9 am, via the school Facebook page. There are also additional well-being and mindfulness activities being sent out weekly by Mrs Kinchin-Frost.

We hope that we can all get through this very challenging time and that the Year 11 students can move on to a bright future in their next steps beyond High School. Any concerns regarding their progression and college places should be addressed to Mrs N Ottaway: nottaway@patchamhigh.org.uk
Kind regards,
Mike Newman
Deputy Headteacher
