Following the first set of autumn reports,
teaching staff collated pupils’ grades across all subjects to determine the
highest achievers and hardest workers in each year group. Pupils who have
performed particularly well this term were awarded certificates in assembly
this week.
Pupils were rewarded for overall effort in
class, effort in prep (homework), academic attainment and/or receiving the most
excellence slips. In some cases, there was great overlap between these
categories. In Year 7, Kai O’Hare, Monty Greenaway and Sylvester Sutherland
performed very well across the board, while Benjamin Willis also ranked in the
top three for prep effort. In Year 8, Jack Underwood demonstrated excellent
effort in class and prep, which also resulted in very high academic
achievement. Josh Walne, Cameron Jones, Joseph Perry and Sydney Burnand also
deserve great credit for their efforts this term.
In Year 9, Joshua O’Hare, Joseph Ruffle and
Duncan Eglinton achieved the highest academic grades, while James Gibbs and
Morgan Taylor displayed the greatest effort. Year 10 pupils Alfie Sheppard and
Brett Fullard stood out amongst their cohort.
Middle school coordinator Mr Morgan commented:
“All pupils have worked well this term, but well done to those recognised in
assembly this week. The grades are split between attainment and effort, meaning
all pupils have the opportunity to excel. I hope to see plenty of different faces
receiving certificates from the Headmaster next term.”
