A MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF YEAR 13

Well.. we made it! Congratulations to all Year 13 for reaching the end of their A level exams and the end of their sixth form experience. We have been so impressed with how hard they have all worked over the last two years and they all deserve to do very well. I have thoroughly enjoyed being their head of year and believe they are all ready to begin their new adventures. Thank you Year 13 for being a fantas- tic year group and I look forward to celebrating with you at the leavers assembly this evening.

Congratulations to Luke Roberts in Yr 13 who has been commended for both his French and Spanish essays in the Cambridge essay competition.

I would like to wish all year 13 the very best for the future and look forward to celebrating their A level results with them on 14 August. Further information about results day will be sent out in due course.

MRS PUGH, HEAD OF YEAR 13

‘A Room of One’s Own’, by Virginia Woolf This poetically powerful extended essay takes readers on a journey through the history of female writers, as we witness first hand the barriers of structural inequality placed in the path of the female sex. This cornerstone of feminist literature beautifully explores the immense power of personal and feminist interpretation, which cannot be recreated by males with complete literary freedom and space. Woolf’s examination of the patriarchal bookshelves, which leave no room for female narrative voices, ignites a desire to shine a light upon the women who broke the locks placed on literary conventions, finally enabling women to write fiction of their own without interruption. Reading this will transform how you perceive the role of the female voice in literature today. BOOK OF THE MONTH
