A special well done to our Year 11 and Year 13 students as they continue with their exams, and to our Year 10 students as they prepare for their trial exams after half term.

We hope all our students and families enjoy a restful break after a busy and brilliant half term.

A special message of support goes to our Year 11 and Year 13 students as they continue with their exams, and to our Year 10 students as they prepare for their upcoming mocks.

You have all worked incredibly hard, and we are so proud of the determination, focus and resilience you continue to show.

Over the break, make time to rest, recharge and look after yourselves, but also keep using your time wisely. Short, focused revision sessions, regular breaks, sleep and time away from your desk all make a real difference.

Year 11 and Year 13, you are nearly there. Year 10, your mocks are a brilliant opportunity to build confidence and show what you can do.

Keep going, stay positive and remember, the whole SJP community is behind you.
