Students from the Sixth Form have written about their experiences in lessons, enrichment and tutorials to give you the ‘real picture’ of what it’s like being in the Sixth Form at Nunthorpe.
This has initially been set up by Hannah Scurr (Yr 13) and is currently being collated by the Yr 12 Student Voice group.
Below are some snippets, prior to publication.
There have been a variety of items uploaded to the website recently, here is a list of the most important changes.
As we are about to start our official period of ‘study leave’, please read the information below which gives details about the remainder of this term.
An increasing number of parents have approached us in recent months seeking information, help and support as they become more familiar with internet based social networking sites. These sites are an everyday feature of most adolescent lives in our technology rich 21st century world – made all the more possible by handheld portable devices (web-enabled smart phones etc.) so that sitting at a computer terminal to access the sites is no longer necessary.
It is perhaps obvious to state that a significant number of our parents are concerned about the potential dangers of social networking for their sons and daughters. Whilst they can see (as can our school) the potentially great benefits for young people of such technology, they also appreciate its possible risks – especially in the areas of ‘cyber bullying’ and ‘cyber grooming’.
As your final few weeks in Year 11 approach and your final GCSE examinations are on the horizon we write to you with some important information and key dates to remember:
