Student Voice

“It’s different to all the other subjects, I can just do my own thing more. I feel happy when I have done something I like.”

 

You said that you would like more practical lessons and would like to have text books, so as a result we are…….

  • Students felt they didn’t have the lesson often enough (some only have it twice each fortnight due to languages) however this is alleviated from Year 11 and students will have 3 lessons and after school (p4)
  • Create more practical opportunities
  • Purchase a class set to text books and revision guides
