Y10 Extended School

The Extended School sessions for Year 10 students during the Spring Term have been a real success. Students are provided with extra support outside of lessons, where they are given the opportunity to revisit past topics, reinforce their current learning, and build confidence in a focused yet supportive setting. With the guidance of dedicated Sixth Formers, students have been able to work through areas they find challenging at their own pace, ask questions without hesitation, and engage in meaningful discussions that deepen their understanding. The sessions have not only helped with subject knowledge but have also encouraged independent thinking and a more structured approach to revision, making preparation for assessments feel more manageable and effective.
Anyone walking past the room would notice the quiet buzz of learning - the steady flow of discussion, the focused note-taking, and those moments of clarity when something finally clicks. The atmosphere is one of collaboration and purpose, with students making the most of the opportunity to get the extra support they need.

Student Testimonials:
Extended School is benefitting me greatly. It allows me to revise topics I had almost forgotten about whilst teaching me the topics we are doing in class, giving me extra practice. Tutors also give the tutees the option for them to teach whatever subjects students are struggling with, so the work is much more targeted and comprehensible. The tutors are also friendly, making seeking support so much more accessible and receiving the help needed. Alongside this, the tutors are always open to suggestions to improve the lesson and make them enjoyable by giving us regular breaks. Overall, extended school is benefitting me and is helping me prepare for our upcoming mocks.

Extended school is a very comfortable environment where I feel I can ask questions without worrying. We are going over topics we may have forgotten and need reminding about, which is very useful. Overall, it was a great experience and very helpful.
