Week Without Walls Year 10

Please ensure you have signed up your child to their Week Without Walls (WWW) preference ASAP so we can proceed with the necessary arrangements and organisation. This diverse week of activities can build on the momentum created during WWWs at Mount Davis during Term 1 and provide the students with experiential learning founded on service, community and collaboration.

 

Relationship and Sexual Education Lessons

All students in Year 9 will be having RSE lessons during L4L. Please look over the following handbook for an insight into what the students will be learning.

 

End-of-Year Assessments

All Year 9 students will be completing a series of end-of-year assessments in English, Maths and Science to consolidate much of the learning that has occurred across the curriculum this year. These will happen between Monday 6th May and Friday 10th May. The specific details of what could be assessed will be shared with students next week.

 

As always, thank you for your continued support this year as students prepare for their IGCSE/BTEC courses in Year 10. Please find attached the Secondary Parent and Student Handbook for reference to school queries.

 

Best regards,

 

Neil O’Maonaigh-Lennon

Head of Year 9
