AGES & YEAR GROUPS: School Year 2025-26
In the first instance if a student is too young, or too old for their YEAR GROUP, then they should move up, or down, into the appropriate AGE GROUP, in order to take part in a competition. The Primary School cross country event in October is an exception to this rule, where pupils take part in Year Groups. See HOME PAGE for further details.
