KS3 Organisation House Competition 

Over the next two weeks students in Years 7,8 and 9 are focusing on their organisational abilities. Part of this is being prepared for school. Students have been reminded that a calculator is required at all times. In the BSM Curriculum booklet we recommend that students have a Casio fx-991CW or Casio fx991EX. These calculators have functions that will still be useful when completing Science and Maths GCSEs in Year 10 and 11. Thank you for your continued support.
