Year 11
As Head of Year it gives me real pleasure to introduce this important year. Year 11 is obviously a huge year for the students as they focus their attention towards achieving success in their GCSEs.
They should have returned from their summer holidays having completed two weeks of work experience and be highly motivated to ensure they are able to follow their chosen career path. In September, the Prefect team will start their duties which include being attached to a Year 7 form group and taking on the role of a mentor. They will also work with the form and charity reps to ensure a smooth running and supportive cohort.
Students will be sitting their mock exams in November and will be expected to spend more time at home working, revising and developing a mature, independent work ethos.
Year 11 continues to provide an opportunity for students to build on a range of skills with days organised to cover:
- Examinations; pressure and stress and methods to overcome these emotions using award-winning companies; Elevate Education and Maximize Your Potential.
Throughout the year students are praised and rewarded for their academic achievements. Celebration assemblies are held each term where awards and certificates are handed out. By celebrating each other’s success the year group continue to embed their ‘Love as Brethren’ approach to each other. We particularly take pride in our annual Prizegiving ceremony in recognition of our students’ outstanding achievements
The final school day is always a joyous occasion with a special final assembly organised by and starring the students themselves. It is an outstanding event where all the different talents are celebrated.
It is a tradition that Year 11 students end their examination period with a Prom. Students always make this formal occasion a really special celebration of what will hopefully be five successful years at Coopers Coborn.
Do not hesitate to contact me at the school if you have any questions about Year 11.
