Welcome to Theta's Class Page
In line with the national curriculum recommendations our curriculum provides pupils with an introduction to the essential knowledge that they need to be educated citizens. Pupils in Theta are taught a year 8 curriculum which is differentiated down in order to meet the needs of each individual child while ensuring appropriate challenge.
Theta is a class made up from 8 boys in both year 7 and 8. We are taught by Mr. Gorman and supported by Ms. Jones.
We are also lucky enough to be taught by Mr. Usher on a Monday and Mrs. Anderson on a Thursday!

Optimism – Is created by embracing change in a positive way. We encourage each other to approach every day challenges in an enthusiastic and confident way
Wisdom – Is created by demonstrating knowledge, understanding and reflection. We share our experiences and insight with each other.

Homework
English and Maths homework will be sent home weekly on a Friday and must be returned the following Friday. It is very important that homework is completed regularly and that reading at home takes place at least three times a week. This will help your child to make the best possible progress. Homework can be emailed home if pupils/parents/carers prefer.
Please contact me on the above email with any comments on homework.
