OACF Year 11 Support Site

Here we go ...

It goes without saying that this year is going to be arguably the most demanding that students will face in their academic journeys. Since they joined OACF in September 2021 I have been there to support, guide and intervene in any possible way I can to ensure we are setting these brilliant (not so little) people up to have as much success as possible. It isn't solely possible for an individual to do this alone. We talk about having a triangle where Parents, Staff and Students are all accountable for supporting each other through this journey. This year more than ever we all need to be doing everything we possibly can to give each student the best opportunity to be successful and make sure they reach and even exceed their potential.

They have made a strong start to this year however there is always room for improvement and one thing we are really trying to focus on is engaging them with their enrichments after school. This is so key to them succeeding, so please encourage them where possible to stay for their enrichments and push themselves.

There will be ups and downs throughout the whole year. I will be there alongside them every step of the way in whatever capacity they require from an arm around the shoulder to offering tough love if needed! I will do everything possible to support them academically, personally, emotionally and hopefully come August when they open their envelopes, it will have all been worth it.

Please reach out to me for anything at all.
