Mid-Term Assessments

This week at FoC the students from all our pathways are having mid-term assessments. 

Mid-term assessments are an opportunity for tutors to review the progress being made by students and to check their knowledge.  Tutors can also see which areas classes need to work on as a whole and where individual students are struggling but also excelling.  These assessments are a great way of letting students know which areas they need to work harder on but not forgetting a good opportunity to praise them for their hard work which is also very important in the learning process.

Every student will also have the benefit of receiving personal, written feedback from their teacher for every academic subject that they are taking.

In doing these assessments, students also have a chance to assess themselves and get a good idea of which areas they need to work hard on at home.  It's also great practice for students who will be studying in the UK for a number of years as they can get used to the style of assessments that they will see many of in the future.

Best of luck to all our students.  For a bit of light relief outside the classroom students will be going to see the new Bond film, Skyfall, in cinema tonight.
