Y11 revision sessions

Saturday Revision Sessions

Saturday revision sessions are an opportunity for students to undertake independent silent study in G2 in the Sixth Form.

These sessions will be open to students in Years 11 and 13. Complimentary hot drinks will be available for students. They do not need to wear uniform, we do ask that they bring their own revision material and ask that they do not use mobile phone or wear earphones. These sessions are designed to allow them to focus on their own independent revision, free from distractions. These sessions are offered free of charge but should be booked as places are limited.

Sessions will be running on the following dates:

Saturdays 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29 March
Saturday 26 April
Saturday 3 May
Saturday 10 May - this session will be dedicated to English

Places for these independent silent study sessions can be booked via Arbor within the Clubs section from Monday 10 February.

Easter Revision 2025

These sessions can be booked via Arbor, with the Trips section from 9am Monday 10 February. Places offered on a first come first served basis.
