Planning Your Journey

YEAR 10 KEY INFORMATION: WEEK 7
Work Experience
All students should have received their placement details from VPG for their upcoming Work Experience. Please ensure your child has their documents signed by their employer before they begin in Week 10 and return to the College ASAP. This is also an excellent opportunity for students to get extra details from their work placement.
Assessment Period and the Importance of Regular Attendance
Weeks 5-9 are generally the weeks students complete assessments. Regular attendance during these times is crucial for their success. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if your child is struggling with maintaining regular attendance so we can ensure they are receiving the support they may need.
Uniform Schedule: Week 7
