They give students an opportunity to practise working under exam conditions, and are helpful in highlighting strengths and areas that require developing.

 

All year 11 students are to arrive at Richmond House by 8:55 ready for their exam start time of 9:00 am. 

 

Students will go home after their exam. Students will be expected to work remotely in the afternoon, via our Google Classroom. Please contact your child’s personal coach if you have any concerns or questions.

Yours faithfully, 

Kerrie Henton

Principal
