In this week's Senior Tutor Update video, Vivek reminds students that it is the first assessment week of the term. For our continuing students, this will be a path well trodden; however our new joiners will be experiencing Trefoil assessments for the first time this week. Vivek discusses how we use the data from these assessments to monitor student progress as well as inform our future teaching. Vivek encourages parents of our Y6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 students to equip their children with a Casio FX-991EX Classwiz calculator if they haven't done so already. Vivek congratulates our 11+ students who have been invited for interviews thus far and reminds parents to book in a free 11+ interview prep session if they haven't done so already. Finally, Vivek welcomes Juhi, who joins the office team as our new Receptionist.
