Catch-UP Sessions
As we are looking for all students in years 9 and 10 to complete their Check-it-Out eportfolios by July 1st, there will be catch-up sessions in A12 every Tuesday and Wednesday from 3.30pm starting after half-term.
Holiday Homework
The Review section is worth 5 marks. All students need to complete this task over half-term. This review is aimed at the moderator and should cover what went right and what went wrong. The key is to be honest and to make the review interesting. Simply saying I could have worked harder or planned my time better is to say the least a little obvious and a tad boring. The review itself can be a Word document saved as a PDF, a presentation, sound file or a short film. The following sections must be included:
1. Introduction. (Say what the review is going to be about)
2. The project's aims and objectives. (What they were and how you set about meeting them. Did you meet them?)
3. Publications. (for each publication say what challenges you had and how you solved them. refer to feedback)
4. Performance Analysis. (You should analyse your own performance. What went well and what went wrong. Come up with two things you would do differently should you repeat the project. these must be imaginative ideas not just vague things like work harder)
5. Conclusion (Always add a final conclusion)

Towards Completion

Currently our Year 8s are working hard on this year's SPB Dance O Clock. Most groups should now be starting or about to start on the Playlist. It is however vital that all students have completed the Danceometer. Do contact the ICT team if you are struggling with any aspect of this.
The deadline for Year 9s and 10s to complete Check it Out is July 1st. There are 42 marks available for DiDa and we are looking for all students to be on around 22 by July 1st. We will then start only those students who have reached this level on Unit 2. All students will receive feedback which will help them to get their marks up to a B, A or A*. This work they should carry out in their own time.
A strong word of warning! Before students can obtain Unit 2 they must pass Unit 1. December 1st 2008 is the last window in which the exam board Edexcel will accept marks for Check it Out. THERE WILL BE NO EXTENSIONS
