Extra curricular activities at Eastlea
Year 9 At the end of year 9 our students complete GL assessments in English, Maths and Science and these assessments will take place during the week of 16th June - 20th June. These are nationally standardised tests and allow us to understand how your child is progressing since their arrival at the beginning of Year 7 and set them targets for their progress at GCSE. Year 10 At the end of year 10 our students complete GCSE level exams in each of their subjects. These exams will take place between 23rd June and 4th July. These are standard exam papers which use GCSE grade boundaries to indicate the progress your child is making in their subjects. It also helps us to make decisions about their sets and entries for their GCSEs in year 11.
