During week commencing 5 February, year 10 students will be undertaking assessments in most subjects. Assessments will take place in normal timetabled lessons and will last approximately 55 minutes.
Students will carry out some revision in class and will also be set a homework task on Edu-link to help them prepare for the assessments. Details of what is being assessed will be shared with students. A timetable for the week is given below.
Students will receive the results of the assessments in lessons. These results will form the basis for teacher judgements in the next report home, which you will receive later in the school year.
We are very proud of the attendance of the vast majority of our students. We appreciate your support in ensuring your child is in school and making progress. It goes without saying that full attendance during this assessment period is essential. Students should also ensure that they are appropriately equipped for each assessment. This includes a pen, pencil and ruler, as well as a Scientific Calculator for maths and Science assessments.
If you have any questions, please contact me at school.
Yours sincerely,
Miss A Horsburgh
Director of Learning – Year 10
