We will be moderating coursework (FOR THE LAST TIME!) on Tuesday and Wednesday. Please meet in the Community Hall (go to Main Reception and they'll point you in the right direction) at 8:30.

If you have exam classes this year please make sure you bring all coursework folders with you with all pieces named and marked.

As always, we have a lot to get through but it is important that we get it right. I'll supply plenty of energy/brain food and we can console ourselves with the fact that we'll never have to do this again.*

* Until the change the curriculum again in about four years...
