Dear Parents and Carers,
Year 10 Exam Period – Monday 17 June to Friday 28 June
Year 10 students will be sitting written exams in most subjects between Monday 17 June and Friday 28 June. In addition to this, there will be practical exams and MFL speaking tests in the weeks commencing 10 June and 8 July. A timetable for this period is attached to this letter.
Students will carry out some revision in class and will also be set homework tasks on Edu-link to help them prepare for the assessments. In most cases, the exams will cover all the work from this year. Further details of what is being assessed will be shared with students.
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
