In this week's Senior Tutor Update video, Vivek reminds parents that we have four very important and busy teaching weeks remaining. Two of these weeks will contain assessments. In Week 9, all students will be given a short, 20-minute assessment and in Week 11 all students will be given a longer assessment. For students in Years 7, 8, 9 and 10, the assessment in Week 11 will be an hour-long end-of-year exam. Vivek reminds us all to make the most of these four weeks and that endeavours now will pay dividends next year. With registration in full flow, over 50% of the places for September have already been filled, with parents on our waitlist lists being called this week. Finally, Vivek reminds parents that the final event of the academic year will take place on Saturday 24th June where we will be hosting 20 parents for the 11+ Parents' Advice Afternoon.
As students are in the depth of revision our Director of Studies, Rebecca, discusses a variety of revision techniques that can break the monotony of independent revision. She hopes students try a few in preparation for their End of Year Exams!
