Year 10s completed their mock exams during the end of this term and we concentrated on unit 1 - system architecture. We are moving back to unit 2 in September, to be ready for the next set of mocks in November. Congratulations to Andrei & Hikmet for being the stars of the year!

Computing – KS3 Year 7 have been studying the computer science topic: coding, in Scratch to design a story and they moved on to creating a movie poster, as part of the creative iMedia taster lessons. Year 8 have also been studying computer science topics, algorithms, logic gate and binary. They then moved on to researching about their chosen technology with social, ethical, legal and environmental effects of this technology. These topics will equip our students with the knowledge of computing and prepare them for their GCSE options in computer science and ICT courses.
