It has been another busy week for the 6th form class.
Following an extremely cold visit to Gibside for our weekly work experience trip last week, this week we have been enjoying significantly better weather which we are hoping continues into Friday when we will be back at Gibside. This week Mr Morton will be taking the class to Gibside as Mr Evans is staying in school with A7 class.
It has been great this week to get fantastic reports about 3 of our students who have been out on work experience placements. The students have made a huge impression on the staff who they are working with!
Finally, it was also great this week to spend time during a literacy session reviewing the progress that students have made this year.  Students were asked to find examples within their work, showing where and how they had met their different targets. It was wonderful to hear the students talk about their successes! Bravo.

It's been a really busy first week back for the 6th formers. We have hit the ground running with our new timetable and the students have adapted really well to the changes that this has brought about.

Really significant news, is that we have 4 students going out on work experience on different days of the week during this half term. 

The 2 students who started their work placements on Tuesday received  glowing reports from their mentors about on how well they managed in the workplace.

As of now, we are heading to Gibside on Friday for our regular volunteering trip, however, we are keeping a close eye on the weather to see how this might impact our plans!
