Year 8
After settling into school during Year 7, the focus in Year 8 is embracing responsibility. This may be through representing their form in the Year 8 Management Committee or on the School Council. Perhaps through participation in music, sport, the library, or house events. Burford are supporting students as they become responsible for their own learning and their own actions. Each form in the year group will take it in turn to present a summary of the weeks news in Thursday's assembly and will also arrange an entire assembly at some point during the year.

Famous quotes containing the word year:
“Material advancement has its share in moral and intellectual progress. Becky Sharp’s acute remark that it is not difficult to be virtuous on ten thousand a year has its applications to nations; and it is futile to expect a hungry and squalid population to be anything but violent and gross.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
