YEAR 12 INDUCTION

After a disrupted few years, students and staff alike looked forward to the start of what we all hope will be a far more straightforward couple of years. This was especially true of the some 260 Year 12 students whose number has swelled with the introduction of some outstanding external students this summer. Established in new tutor groups, this new cohort had an opportunity to get to know one another and indeed their new form tutors through a series of team building games at Grists. With no shortage of competitive "encouragement" from their peers, students competed in a series of challenges in which they were then required to self - assess their efforts based on a series of criteria including performance and communication, some groups being questionably generous! At its end students seemed to have enjoyed their day and were ready to face the fresh start that the Tiffin Sixth Form provides as they embark on their A - Level studies and hopefully no shortage of extra - curricular activities.
