	<link>https://www.moorsidehigh.co.uk/news/?pid=3&amp;nid=1&amp;storyid=1538</link>	<description><![CDATA[<p>As we move further into this important stage of Year 10, I am writing to highlight the importance of excellent attendance and punctuality. The work students are covering in lessons now forms the foundation of their GCSE courses. This learning will be directly assessed not only in the Year 10 end‑of‑year exams, but also in their final GCSE examinations in the summer of 2027. It is therefore vital that students do not miss any valuable learning time.</p>
