This week, Year 11 enjoyed four full hours of preparation for their English Language and Literature GCSE exams. Pupils were given revision activities based around the set texts ‘An Inspector Calls’, Power and Conflict Poems, ‘Macbeth’ and ‘A Christmas Carol’. They also strengthened reading and writing skills ready for their English Language mock exam on Friday 17th February.
