Pupils in their final year at Murray Park have a dedicated year team to ensure that they have the support needed to succeed in their GCSE’s. As pupils leave Murray Park to a range of Post 16 opportunities different levels of provision is offered throughout the year. These include Careers and guidance, coursework sessions and revision. This has already begun in the summer term of Y10. Every Y11 pupil will be assisted by the Y11 team so that they get individualized support in their final year.
The Y11 team does everything it can to support the year group and encourages the pupils to discuss with tutors any issues that arise in the very short and sometimes stressful year before the exams start.
