Supporting Year 11 Students Every Step of the Way

At The Bulmershe School, we understand that the GCSE exam period can feel overwhelming for students and their families. That’s why we go the extra mile to ensure our Year 11s feel supported, motivated, and prepared for success. From tailored academic support to well-being initiatives, our approach helps students stay confident and focused during this crucial time.

A Structured Approach: The Bulmershe Ascent Programme

The Bulmershe Ascent Programme is a dedicated Year 11 support initiative designed to help students stay organised, focused and motivated in the run-up to their GCSEs. It provides a clear structure for revision, study habits and goal-setting, ensuring students feel in control of their learning journey.

Targeted Revision & After-School Support

We offer regular revision sessions, both during school hours and after school, providing students with extra support in key subjects. Our teachers run small-group interventions to focus on specific topics, helping students consolidate their learning and build confidence.

Specialist Support for Every Student

We recognise that every student is different, which is why we provide bespoke support through our Engagement Managers, SIGNAL, and OASIS teams. These teams work closely with students who need additional help, offering tailored academic and emotional support.

Managing Exam Stress & Well-being

Exams can be stressful, and we take a holistic approach to student well-being. We teach effective stress management strategies, ensuring that students feel equipped to handle exam pressures. 

Keeping Spirits High: Rewards & Positivity

At Bulmershe, we believe in celebrating effort as well as achievement. Throughout the exam season, we keep motivation high with reward schemes, recognition events, and positivity initiatives that encourage students to keep pushing forward.
