All,
First, and perhaps most importantly, I continue to hear very positive things about the calm and professional way that you have started your Sixth Form studies, so a sincere thank you for that, and keep it up.
This will be a very busy week, and you should now expect the work outside the classroom to really start to pick up (twenty five school weeks until study leave !). Remember, we say we expect three to four hours independent work a day. If you have not done so, then you need to set up quickly a proper filling system, a work routine, and ideally a quiet space to work at home. You might like to know that the Sixth Form is open from 7.00 until 5.30, and you are always welcome to use it outside lesson times.
You will have tutor meetings on Monday and Thursday, and, as the published rota shows, a formal assembly with me on Tuesday. Please note these are all compulsory and they will be registered.
Finally, I hope that you are using the news feed on this site to enrich your studies. If you do Maths or Drama there have been excellent opportunities posted this week from them. In addition, you might like to note the news posts I have made. Perhaps the most important point to highlight is the excellent careers information on offer. You should be starting to think about life after Little Heath now.
This week alone…
- On Monday Mr Hand is doing an assembly for Year Thirteens on student finance. If you want to go you are welcome (just clear it with your mentor).
- There is information about the the growing trend for sponsored degrees – with an opportunity for business / economics students.
- There is information about a careers fair for those of you who are not planning to go to university.
Contacts made and information gained now will really help in Year Thirteen.
Enjoy your studies, and have a good week.
Mr Kydd.
