Last week, Mis Murphy from Modern Languages spent the week in Marakech as part of a reading project she is undertaking with the Literacy Trust.  We are looking forward to this project coming to life and enhancing reading within the faculty.  Watch this space for future updates !

NLC Literacy Pilot 

As the pilot comes to a close we have undertake some rigorous self-evaluation with the young people and the results have been amazing.  The final products are amazing and the active pedagogy has been a huge hit with our young people.  We look forward to widening this project in the future – watch this space for exciting news on this pilot coming VERY soon.

S4 Progress Assessments

As we the staff continue to work our way through the marking and cross-marking of papers our young people are working hard to ensure they have achieved their Level 5 Literacy Qualifications.  Results in both English and Spanish should be back with the young people at the beginning of next week.

S5-6 Prelims 

As we move towards the S5-6 Prelims we remind our young people of the various Supported Study offerings in both English and Spanish.  Folio Clinic continues every Friday afternoon with a healthy uptake.  There are numerous resources on MS Teams to support young people in their revision including Scholar, Achieve and our own revision materials.

BGE  Christmas Activities 

Most S2 English classes are enjoying this festive treat in class as we move towards the big day.  At the same time S1 are busy producing their Christmas magazines !

Thanks to all our parents and carers for their continued support.  As ever, if you have any questions regarding languages then please contact me via the school office or by emailing NLBurtonM@northlan.org.uk
