  • Introduction Dear Students, Parents and Carers,

    Students often ask, ‘Are the mock exams important?’ ‘Do they count for anything?’ My answer is always an overwhelming YES!

    The mock exams in December are a really important stage of a student’s preparation for their GCSE exams in the summer of 2021. In the same way that a marathon runner will train hard for their race and do their best to simulate the race day conditions, the mock exams give students the opportunity to sit a significant number of exams over an intense period of time. This gets them accustomed to the challenges and demands of the exam period.

    The Department for Education has made it clear that they intend exams to take place as normal next summer. However, if circumstances change and they do not take place, how well students do in their mock exams is likely to be an important consideration in any centre assessed grades.

    Their mock exams also offer them the chance to identify strengths and areas to work on in particular subjects. This will inform their revision going forwards.

    Imberhorne 6th form together with other post-16 institutions will also use mock exam re-sults to inform their decisions when it comes to offering places on particular courses. All post-16 courses will have entry requirements.

    The mock exams are really important. Take the time to prepare and revise properly and use them as a dry-run for the real thing in the summer.

    Work hard and good luck!

    Mr D Jones

    Assistant Headteacher

    Section B: Evaluative writing based on own performance and choreography. Students will revise sec-tion B in class time in preparation for the mocks. Longer answer questions, three questions, all 6 marks each.

    Section C: Anthology – students have a revision guide based on the 6 works studied on the course. Up until the mocks, longer type questions will be set in preparation for the paper. All 6 works can be accessed on the Dance homepage and students have the set links. Essay type questions are expected here with up to 12 marks.

    Students have exercise books and revision packs that will need to be taken home nearer the time for mocks. Students can take these home as and when but must be brought to all dance lessons.
