On Wednesday 21  February we will be suspending our normal timetable for a special day where students will be focussing on thinking /learning skills and their future.

Our three year groups will each have a different focus for the day:

• Year 7 will  have a series of sessions to help them understand how they can develop as better learners, collaborate in their learning and to grow learning resilience.
• Year 8 will have special options taster sessions. This will provide them with an opportunity to experience some of the subjects they may wish to consider in the options process and especially those subjects that they haven’t studied before.
• Year 9 will have a series of sessions focussed on developing the more advanced skills, attitudes and approaches they will need to be successful in their GCSEs

The catering team have also designed a special menu for the day .

This is going to be a very interesting day that further equips our students to maximise their achievement at Maiden Erlegh School in Reading. Staff are already in midst of preparing resources and learning experiences for the students and are keen to ensure it is a great success.
