Last week we were delighted to offer an extended assembly for our Year 11 students with a guest speaker joining us. Gemma Leach, our dedicated Emotional Resilience Nurse, presented to our Yr 11 pupils on the theme of coping with exam-related stress. As Year 11 start to undertake their mock GCSE exams, we understand there can be a lot of pressure and anxiety that builds up over the course of the exam period. Gemma spoke to students about exam stress, identifying the emotions that cause it and shared some techniques about how they can best deal with it, as well as where they can find additional help should they need it.
