How sophisticated we are! Year 13s enjoyed a traditional afternoon tea, with bubbles, at The Crowne Plaza in Marlow to top off what has been a memorable year and a unique Sixth Form experience for them.

Year 12 students stepped up to take assembly and focused our attention on the importance of active learning. Katie, Jessie, Olivia and Parees highlighted the role of ‘flipped learning’ and memory, effective revision and recall in remembering and applying their knowledge in assessments. They spoke about their own learning strategies and delivered their presentation with aplomb, with the support of Mrs Lamagna-Richardson, Sixth Form Academic Lead.

It has been thrilling to hear Year 12 students discussing undergraduate courses and universities this week as the focus on UCAS has increased.

Fast thinking, ambitious, entrepreneurial, social and curious are just a few of the characteristics of Generation Z, the generation our Year 12 and Year 13 students are a key part of. During this week I have observed many of these qualities in action.

This week, Mrs Rogers interviews Sixth Form students to hear their thoughts and opinions.
