Year 11-12 Bridging Work

A welcome message from Mr Carrasco

Thank you so much for getting ready to participate in the Pre-BTEC/ CTEC/ ‘A’ level programme.  It is a vital preparation step for you to help ensure you are ready for the challenges of advanced level study.

Each subject has put together a guided programme in order to give you a good sense of the depth and breadth of advanced level work in that subject.  They have been asked to provide a more staged and guided approach than ever before, so that as many of you as possible can get a clear idea of what studying that specification means.

Below, you will be able to see all the pre-12 programmes.  You should complete the bridging work for your three chosen subjects.

Be in no doubt – successful participation in these programmes will be one of the key factors in being accepted onto the subjects you opt for at the end of the summer.  Success does not mean getting all the answers right: it means demonstrating resilient engagement with the reading and activities, and completion of the tasks set in section 5: ‘Btec/ ‘A’ level ready in each booklet.

Please contact the relevant subject teacher if you have any questions about the bridging work. Please also remember to bring your completed bridging work to the first lessons in September.

So, once again, let me tell you how thrilled I am that you are committing to the academic process and are willing to take such an important step towards joining The Saint John Henry Newman School Sixth Form in September. Choose wisely, and make the most of the opportunities that unfold…

God Bless
