EXPECTATIONS

Our students learn because they want to learn and we expect them to work hard. The most important thing to us is learning - any student whose behaviour gets in the way of learning will face sanctions.

In a large Academy, it is necessary for all students, parents and staff to share an understanding that all students will:

• work hard to achieve their full academic potential
• respect learning, their own and others
• respond to the many opportunities present both in and beyond the classroom
• respect fellow students and staff
• respect Academy property
• attend regularly, except when ill
• complete homework and coursework to set deadlines
• comply with instructions from all staff
• when at fault, accept correction without argument
• wear uniform as intended
• seek to achieve their personal best

We take our responsibilities seriously and we expect parents to take their responsibilities seriously too.

Parents must:

• support our code of behaviour
• ensure sure that their children attend
• send their children to school dressed in correct Academy uniform and properly equipped for learning
• ensure that their children complete their homework
• check and sign their children’s planner (supplied by the Academy) regularly, as this is an important way for us to communicate
