Dear parents

Tuesday 20th January: How you can support your son in Year 11

I am pleased to be able to inform you that I have arranged an advice evening to provide guidance to parents of students in Year 11 as to how to best support their sons through the difficult months ahead in the build up to their final exams.  I have invited trainer Jeff Moran in to deliver a session on Tuesday 20th January at 6:00pm in the main school hall.

Jeff has worked with thousands of students in over 300 schools across the UK over the past 15 years.  He has already delivered a session in school to many of the students in Year 11 about strategies to support their learning.  The feedback that we got from the boys was extremely positive and they clearly felt that the session was useful.  Parents should arrive in school on Tuesday 20th January from 5:45pm for a 6:00pm start.  The session will last about 1 and a half hours and there will be the opportunity for parents to ask questions at the end.

The areas that Jeff will be covering are:

  • How  we can support our students 
  • What the keys to success are
  • How learning techniques can improve grades 
  • Why we get distracted 
  • How we can improve focus and concentration
  • And moreā€¦..

I do hope that you will be able to attend this evening.  Please can you return the reply slip at the bottom of the page to reserve your place and to give an idea as to the numbers we should expect.  If you have any questions in the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact me at the school.

Yours faithfully
