4. Year 11 mock exams
Because we are having our mock exams at different times to the rest of Year 11, there will be no exam timetable issued to our students for these exams. So:
- can Year 11 teachers make sure they are explicit with their classes about the dates/expectations of these exams (Thurs 9th Jan, 11:20; Mon 31st March, 11:20)
- a letter will be sent home to Year 11 parents outlining these dates

Also, if you you teach a Year 11 class and haven't sent me what tiers you want which students to sit, please do so asap.

5. Dept Christmas meal
Would the week of 16-20th Dec be the best week for our Christmas meal? Have a think and we'll have a very quick discussion at the beginning of our report moderation meeting on Wed 27th Nov.

6. Secret Santa
PTO to organise Secret Santa this year. Details to follow.
