Dear Parent/Guardian
RE: YEAR 11 GCSE MATHEMATICS STUDENT CONFERENCE
BIRMINGHAM CLARENDON SUITES
The Maths Department will be taking 45 pupils to a Student Conference in Birmingham on Wednesday 27th February 2008, as part of their preparation for the GCSE examination in the summer. The conference is primarily aimed at pupils identified as needing some support to achieve that all important `C` grade.
The cost of the trip is £25 per person which includes the coach and the conference Please note, this is to be offered on a first come first served basis. A copy of the aims of the course is attached.
The coach will leave BGN School at 9.15am and return to school between 4.00pm and 4.30pm approximately.
This is a great opportunity for students to attempt different approaches to their learning and take stock of what they need to do to reach their potential in the exams. It will provide advice on various skills which can then be applied to many subjects.
Yours sincerely
Mrs Julie Hart
Acting Head of Maths
