The Year 7 pastoral team will work together to ensure our Year 7 students:

-
Make positive behaviour choices which allow them to thrive in their lessons, enjoy learning and have a drive to be the best they can be.
-
Are well rounded individuals who are thoughtful of others, kind and courteous and look out for their peers. They will make new friends and develop positive relationships.
-

-
Feel safe and happy in school at all times and know where they can go to for support and guidance when they need it.
-
Show ambition by participating in the wider school experiences such as extracurricular activities, sports teams and the student council to get the most out of school life.

Recognise that punctuality and good attendance play a key part in their achievement and enjoyment of school.
-
Take an active part in period 1 and the VIP curriculum, learning about real life experiences and current affairs. They will show kindness by listening to and respecting the ideas and opinions of their class.
​
Excellent attendance is key for all Year 7 students. They must arrive on time each morning (by 8.30am), wearing correct uniform and with full equipment for their day ahead. Punctuality to lessons is important to ensure no valuable learning time is missed.
​
During the year, all Year 7’s can look forward to many opportunities, including the chance to become a prefect, to join in with one of the many and varied after school clubs, theatre visits and other exciting activities.
​
If parents have any questions your first port of call should be to communicate with your child’s form tutor via their ARCK Booklet.
​
Please check planners at least once per week and sign the weekly page to acknowledge you have seen it. Teachers may contact you through the comments section. You can also check any homework or revision tasks set by your child’s teachers.
