In Year 10, we expect Students to behave as role models to the younger Students in the Academy, to wear their uniform with pride and to show care and consideration towards everyone. In Form Time, Students study a variety of topics, including managing mental health and careers. Other topics include preparing for examinations, target setting and developing study skills as well as discussing current affairs.

Year 10 can be quite challenging for students as they begin the hard work of GCSEs. Lots of support is offered in school through Study Hubs, mentoring and catch up sessions and students support each other in all aspects of school.

Later in the academic year Students will be asked to consider applying for Student leadership and prefect roles, these positions will be effective at the beginning of year 11.
