Year 9 It has been a very positive term for our Year 9 students at Regents Park Community College. This term we launched our Inspire Scholars Group, recognising 15 Year 9 students for their excellent attitude to learning and strong progress. These students will be working with Oxford University as part of the programme and have already began taking part in extra-curricular activities. We are very much looking forward to their first trip to Oxford University next term.

Year 9 students have also been selecting their GCSE options. Ms Webster was extremely impressed by the maturity shown by the cohort and the thoughtful way students approached their decisions about their future pathways. It was fantastic to see such strong engagement from families at both Parents’ Evening and Options Evening, with parents and students showing great enthusiasm when discussing options and future plans. We are also pleased to welcome

Miss Harrison back. She has already returned to work with Year 9 on Mondays and Tuesdays and will be back full time after the Easter holidays. We look forward to another successful term ahead and all the opportunities the summer term will bring for Year 9. Miss Cole Head of Year 9

Year 10 As we reach the end of term, I want to say how proud I am of the way Year 10 approached their work experience. It was fantastic to hear about the wide range of placements they took part in and the different skills they developed along the way. Many students stepped out of their comfort zones, showed initiative and represented our school brilliantly. I hope this experience has given Year 10 a valuable insight into the world of work and helped to shape their thinking about future pathways and ambitions.

Back in school, Year 10 are, on the whole, approaching their lessons with a really mature attitude, and it’s great to see the progress many of them are making. I’d like to see this positive approach continue as we move into the next term. One area we do need to keep focusing on is making sure phones are placed in phone wallets at the start of each day and that everyone is in school and arriving to lessons on time. Small habits like these make a big difference and help create the focused learning environment we want for everyone. Keep up the good work, Year 10! Mrs Mouland Head of Year 10
