We still have a number of GCSE and A Level Exam certificates from summer 2011 which need to be collected.

Exams staff will be available in the Academy between 9:30am and 3:30pm on Monday 2^nd April, Tuesday 3^rd April, Thursday 12^th April and Friday 13^th April 2012. Certificates can be collected from the Data and Exams Office (next to PE1 and IT8) during these times.

If you wish to collect your certificates on an alternative date you must contact the Exams Department at the Academy before visiting the site to agree a mutually convenient time.

All candidates who have certificates to collect will be sent a postcard reminder to their home address.   Proof of ID will be required to collect certificates and they will need to be signed for.  If you cannot collect in person, you can authorise someone else to collect them on your behalf but they must have a letter from you giving us permission to release them to your representative.  Alternatively, we can post them to your home address but require you to send 2.50 to cover the cost of Recorded Delivery.  Cheques should be made payable to Ossett Academy with your name and current address detailed on the reverse.

Thank you to all that entered this year's competition! Kolorcraft were very impressed by all the entries which made the decision very hard for them. 1st prize of an iPad2 went to Danny Mitchell in Year 10, B-Cne, whose wire sculpture of a reindeer was chosen for their Christmas Card.

Well done also to Hannah Kilner, 11-Lcu, who was awarded an iPod Touch for her painting of a robin, and Brittany Andrews in 7 H-Kbo who was awarded an iPod nano for her 'Penguin in the Snow' collage.

Leeds Trinity University are organising a free online university application workshop through Facebook during all of next week (21st through 25th November). There’ll be a Senior Admissions Officer to answer questions about the application process, a couple of their Student Recruitment officers to give advice about personal statements, and a few of their current students to answer general questions about student life and what really matters when choosing a university.

The team will be available on the official Leeds Trinity Facebook page (www.facebook.com/LeedsTrinity) all next week.
