Exams
During this time of uncertainty, students may become anxious and worried about their exams. At present we can not give any advice other than carry on with normal procedures, e.g. revising for the forthcoming exams and try to continue with healthy routines including taking breaks and getting appropriate sleep. However, as a school, we are monitoring closely the advice from the government and the exams boards and will relay this information with you all as soon as we get it.
