Year 11 Study Skills Evening – Thursday 1 October, 6.00–7.00pm

September 18, 2026/in General News/by Laetitia Thompson

We are delighted to welcome Dr Martijn van der Spoel, Educational Psychologist from Glia Learning, to Townsend on Thursday 1 October for our Year 11 Study Skills Day and Evening.

During the day, Dr van der Spoel will be working with Year 11 students, helping them develop effective revision, study and exam preparation strategies. His sessions were incredibly well received last year, and many students successfully used his techniques to achieve strong GCSE outcomes.

In the evening, parents, carers and students are invited to join us for a Year 11 Study Skills Evening from 6.00 pm to 7.00 pm. Dr van der Spoel will share practical advice on how families can support students through this important year. There will also be key information and updates from Townsend staff, including important dates and guidance for Year 11.

🎟️ Booking is essential. Please reserve your place here: Year 11 Study Skills Evening for Parents/Carers – 1 October, 6.00–7.00 pm.

Students are also very welcome to attend.

We look forward to welcoming you and supporting our Year 11 students as they prepare for their GCSE examinations.
