As soon as they returned after their relaxing Winter Break Year 11s were straight back into serious work with their mock exams. In preparation for their GCSEs which begin in May, all students made their way to the exam hall to test the revision they had done over the holidays. A major benefit of mock exams is that it gives students a chance to test their exam techniques, including crucial timing, to ensure that when the real thing rolls round they spend the right amount of time on each question and don’t find themselves frantically scribbling in the last fifteen minutes.
Pictured here are students whose efforts and results were worthy of being highlighted. Some of these students achieved results which surpassed expectations. Others may not have had the highest academic score but showed incredible progress from previous exams. I’d like to congratulate them on their hard work and encourage them to continue to strive to achieve their full potential.

It’s something I’ve believed for a long time — that learning isn’t predetermined by our genes. It’s about growing, persevering, and learning through the process. I was really mindful of this idea at this week’s wonderful Primary Summer Concert, after which I found myself reflecting on whether these amazing children have an innate talent, or whether they have achieved so much because of hard work and practice.
I believe it’s the latter. These children, their parents, and their teachers all seem to share the belief that by trying and working hard, they will get better at what they do. This is what we call a growth mindset.
