  15. Attendance • Good attendance is directly linked to good achievement. • Government data shows that only 35% of pupils with poor attendance (less than 85%) achieve 5 GCSEs, including English and Maths, at grade C or above. • However, for pupils whose attendance is 95% or more this figure rises to 73%.

  16. Punctuality • 15 mins detention • 30 mins detention • Head / SLT hour detention • Inclusion • If your daughter is ‘only’ five minutes late every morning: • 5 x 190 days = 950 minutes per school year • 950 minutes per school year = nearly 16 hours of schooling • 16 hours of schooling = 16 hours of valuable lesson time = more than 3 whole days!!

  17. Behaviour & Expectations • Follow rules. • Avoid distractions. • Always come to lesson with correct equipment. • Complete homework on time and to the best of ability. • Positive frame of mind.

  18. Developing the whole pupil • Extra-curricular opportunities • School clubs • Trips • Expeditions • Work experience

  19. Aiming High • Challenge • Resilience • Support • Success
