Year 11 - Information Hub
Year 11 is a pivotal year and here at QES we are committed to supporting students as they prepare for their GCSE examinations and finalise coursework. A key part of our work is to keep communication to parents clear and provide regular support to you as you, in turn, support students at home.
Our intention is to equip you with the tools and information that will enable all students to get the most out of their subject lessons, home learning, revision and interventions as they progress through Year 11. Alongside our robust curriculum, we provide pastoral support for a year that will undoubtedly bring challenges and rewards to our Year 11 students.
