For the past two years the Languages Department has been using This is School (previously called This is Language) for Spanish and German. This is School gives students the opportunity to practise their Listening skills with a range of videos and activities, as well as learning vocabulary and watching short videos about all the key grammatical points and practising the grammar with activities.
Torquay Boys’ Grammar School is one of the top 10 highest ranking schools in the UK for the academic year 23/24. It’s incredible! Just look at the data:
• Our students have answered an impressive 247,507 questions correctly
• Our students have successfully received instant feedback on 27,990 assignments
• Based on the benchmark research, continued usage by students at this level will lead to demonstrable increase in attainment at GCSE or equivalent.
• Judging by their funky avatars, our students have been putting the 371,260 peanuts they’ve earned to good use. We love to see that creativity!
This is an amazing achievement by our students and really demonstrates the huge value and fun that Torquay Boys’ Grammar School is getting from your partnership with This is School. We are very proud.
