|  | **1 March 2021**  Dear Year 11  students  We hope you and your families are well and that you are looking forward to a return to face-to-face learning next week. We have been very impressed with the resilience and dedication you have demonstrated during this latest Lockdown and as staff, we are looking forward to welcoming you back into College.  On Thursday 25th February, Ofqual released some guidance documents explaining the processes involved in the awarding of grades this summer. Individual Examination Boards are due to issue their own guidance to schools in the coming weeks. You can view Ofqual’s guidance documents by using the links below:  <https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/how-qualifications-will-be-awarded-in-2021>  <https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/965005/6747-1_decisions_-_GQ_consultation_on_awarding_grades_in_2021.pdf>  <https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/964973/6748-1_-_Decisions_-_VTQ_Consultation_on_awarding_grades_in_2021.pdf>  Teachers will be responsible for awarding your grades. Your grades **will not** be awarded on the basis of one piece of evidence. A teacher’s judgement will take into account a wide evidence base covering work that you have already completed and will also include work that you will complete in the coming weeks and months.  With this in mind Year 11, it is very important that you continue to maintain your efforts.  You can be very confident that your teachers will continue to fully support you as you prepare for your future. You will continue to cover the necessary subject content and practise the range of skills required and be given time to revise content that has already been covered. There will be ample opportunities for you to demonstrate your academic attainment and what you are capable of achieving.  We have said before: we cannot control the current situation but we can determine how we respond to the challenge. Take time to look after yourselves. Remember that there is a range of useful wellbeing links on the website:  <https://www.bishopchalloner.org.uk/catholic-college/about/safeguarding/safeguarding-and-well-being>  It is very important that we all continue to follow the advice on how to stay safe. You are assured of the support of your teachers and the whole school community.  Together, we will continue to live out our Mission statement*: We give Glory to God by developing our full potential…*  Kind regards  ![](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/images/news/dan_sign.jpg)  D.
