Dear Parents and Carers,
I would like to inform you about the importance of your child’s upcoming internal exams that are taking place in the week commencing Monday 8 May 2017.
An overview of the Year 7 exam schedule is attached to this letter. However, your child will also be issued with a personalised exam timetable, detailing the date, time and location of each of their individual examinations before their exams commence on Monday 8 May. It is essential that all exams are approached with the upmost care and diligence.
This set of upcoming internal exams will be based on curriculum content covered throughout Year 7 so far and will inform your child’s progress to date. The scores achieved will provide a set of robust data and results, which will be analysed to inform your child’s current attainment and progress towards achieving their academic targets in each subject. The results of these examinations will form part of your child’s next progress report.
In view of this, attendance at each of these exams is essential. It is also vital that your child prepares for each of these exams correctly and that they arrive to each exam punctually, having completed a suitable amount of revision at home. Students must also ensure that they are appropriately equipped and organised with all necessary tools and equipment to complete each exam to the best of their ability.
Please find attached to this letter, a copy of the Year 7 exam timetable, along with a list of topics, skills or content that will be tested in each exam, necessary equipment needed and a revision guidance sheet with tips to help your child prepare correctly and succeed within each exam.
If you or your child have any queries or questions regarding these exams, please do not hesitate to contact me at Workington Academy via phone or email – ntweddle@workingtonacademy.org
Yours sincerely,
Miss N Tweddle
