Welcome to Thomas Tallis. We are a large, happy and exciting school with a commitment to comprehensive values of challenge and creativity. Coronavirus means that we are closed to visitors so we can’t make our usual open offer of a visit. This website paints an accurate picture of Tallis life, so have a good search if you’d like to know more. I hope that you find what you are looking for.

Awarding of Grades for Year 11 BTEC StudentsOn 14 May Pearson the BTEC exam board confirmed what will happen with Year 11 BTECs this year. They have asked us to provide them with grades for coursework units Year 11 students have already completed and a prediction for any coursework units which were incomplete on March 20. Pearson will produce a grade for any externally assessed units that were cancelled in May/June. Year 11 students do not need to complete any further work for their BTECs and overall grades will be issued on Results Day. Please do not ask any teacher for grades that they have predicted as we cannot communicate these with students. Please move on with your plans about your next steps and let us know if you need help with these.
Awarding of Grades for Year 10 BTEC StudentsOn 14 May Pearson the BTEC exam board confirmed what will happen with Year 10 BTECs this year. They have asked us to provide them with grades for coursework units Year 10 students have already completed and a prediction for any coursework units which were incomplete on March 20 but due to be completed this year. Pearson will produce a grade for any externally assessed units that were cancelled in May/June. Student grades for all Year 10 units will be finalised using this method and Year 10 students must now start preparing for their Year 11 course to begin. BTEC teachers will confirm what each student needs to do now i.e. preparation for next year's units. All Year 10 students should continue working on this preparatory work set by teachers as next year will be a challenge for everyone and we want to make sure that students are in the best position. Please do not ask any teacher for grades that they have predicted as we cannot communicate these with students.
