Pre-Post-16 Courses Induction Day

Monday 27 April 2020 - 8.40am to 3.00pm

The College will be hosting a Virtual Induction Day on Monday 27 April to introduce our current Year 11s and students who will be joining us from other schools to the Pre-Post 16 courses that will be available for them online from next week.

Students will be put into their new Tutor Group on Microsoft Teams and into Teams for their chosen A-level or BTEC subject choices.  All students will be sent basic guides to Teams and meetings.

Once logged on to Teams, students will receive notifications and invitations to the relevant Teams they are part of and be able to view the format of the day on their calendar. We would advise logging on before Monday morning to ensure everything is working as it should be.

Over the course of the day students will get to know the Sixth Form Team and their Sixth Form tutor, who will play such an important role over the coming months. Students will also have talks on independent learning, study skills and making a good start to their Sixth Form studies.  We will conduct an IT health check to make sure the technology is working correctly for all students and there will be introductions to the Extended Project Qualification and our Core and Enrichment opportunities.

At the end of the day there will be a Q and A session, that parents are welcome to sit in on too should they wish.

If you have any queries about the day please contact Mr Collie at bencollie@princethorpe.co.uk or if you have any IT related queries please contact Mr Compton, our Director of Digital Strategy at andycompton@princethorpe.co.uk.
