Key Stage 4 and 5<br />
All departments provided<br />
opportunities for students<br />
to work on key areas for<br />
improvement within their<br />
subject areas. Work included<br />
targeted support in exam technique, A*/A focus workshops, key topic guidance, C/D Borderline<br />
working groups and subject knowledge work. Students had the opportunity to take part in walking<br />
talking mocks and focussed workshops to improve coursework. In addition Zero Culture Theatre<br />
Company performed their powerful new play “Agent” to the sixth form about the issues surrounding<br />
the plight of migrants coming to the local area and being employed in construction work, building and<br />
living under the bridges in Southall and how the “agent” betrays them to the authorities.<br />
Oh, the Places you’ll go!<br />
Inspired by Dr Seuss<br />
In the summer term, our final TI day focussed on visions and values<br />
for the future of our school. Students used the day to explore the great<br />
city and countryside we live in. They were given a list of possible<br />
places to visit and in preparation for the day; students were required<br />
to do some research about their chosen destination, including any<br />
costs and how to get there. For those with oyster cards travel was<br />
free. As a record of where they had been they had to send a selfie of<br />
themselves at the places they visited. The list was extensive including<br />
places like Kew gardens, Gunnersbury Park or walking the London<br />
Loop, museums, galleries, watching Changing the Guard ceremony at<br />
Buckingham Palace to finding platform 9 ¾ at Kings Cross Station.<br />
Some students ventured out of the local area whereas others explored<br />
closer to home but all had a fantastic day and were very animated<br />
about what they had seen on their return to school.<br />
