Our Expectations • School day – Start 8.50 Finish 3.40 • Attendance • Flexy registration as a privilege • SSA and Unsupervised study • Uniform + Games Uniform • Dedication and Commitment
Our Expectations- work outside of school • Research has shown that a student working over 9 hours per week achieves on average one grade lower than expected in each A level subject. • The study showed that when students worked was significant. • For example, two hours after School was sensible, whereas long evening shifts were detrimental. • Consequently, we recommend that the maximum hours a sixth form student should work would be one day at the weekend (and perhaps one short evening shift).
Target Setting • For exam grade targets we use ALPS (A-Level Performance System) • For each course, students are given a Estimated grade based on their GCSE results • Aspirational but realistic
