Welcome to S3 English.
During this year our young people are working within the Broad General Education and continue are provided with opportunities to experience the fourth level in English. Assessment is continuous with young people being assessed in all four core elements of reading, writing, talking and listening. All of our classes in S3 are mixed ability with lessons tailored to meet the needs of all students. At the end of S3 we will make decisions on the most appropriate pathway for young people based on their learning over the course of the year.
Materials are available on the S3 Team for English within the Files section.
