Summer Step Up Programme - supporting Year 11s transitioning to Post 16 education

Year 11 pupils faced a significant interruption to their learning as a result of the Covid-19 restrictions which closed schools to most pupils in March 2020, alongside the cancellation of national exams.

Autumn GCSE re-sit course

The What A Difference A Day Makes (WADADM) project was adapted during the pandemic to support new Year 12 students to re-sit their Year 11 GCSE exams, given the disruption to learning they had faced during Year 11 in Spring and Summer 2020.
