Dear Parents/Carers,
Re: Year 9 Assessments
As part of our preparation of students for terminal GCSE exams we will be running an exam week for Year 9 students. This will run from Monday 29th April to Friday 3rd May as per the school calendar. Within this week students will be examined on all of their courses. Students will receive their individual timetables to allow them to plan their revision.
To ensure parents and students are as informed as possible we will be running a study skills and information session on Tuesday April 9th in the school hall from 4.15pm – 5.30pm. The session will cover study skills and revision strategies and how as parents you can perhaps support your child. As part of our attempts to increase parental engagement in sessions like this we are trialling an alternative time rather than our usual 6pm/7pm and a slightly less formal set up in the hall with tea and coffee available. We do hope you and your child will be able to join us – please complete the tear off slip below to indicate whether or not you are able to attend.
If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs K Wallace
Vice Principal: Curriculum and Achievement

Look at the goodies that staff (and one of my Year 9s!) have donated to Black Cat Rescue in North Duffield! Still time to contribute if you want to add to the food appeal! @Barlby_High pic.twitter.com/Mmjm…
Well done to all students involved in the 1st Peer Reading session today. It was lovely to see our YR10 mentors meet their YR7 readers, getting to know each other, helping to choose books & by the end of the session the group had read 98 pages. @Barlby_English @Barlby_High pic.twitter.com/as0V…

Reading2dogs @selbylibrary. A small group of students had a fantastic afternoon with Dora and everyone at Selby library as part of the Reading2dogs scheme. Plenty of time to explore all that the library has to offer. @Barlby_High @Barlby_English pic.twitter.com/ucng…
