| A: They need to obtain a lunchtime pass. Parents need to complete a form available from student reception to confirm their consent. |
| Q: What are the uniform cards for? |
| A: To encourage students to dress smartly. We believe that a smart approach to dress will mean students have a smart approach to their work. It is also important to prepare students for the workplace where standards of dress may be expected. Each time a student is stopped by a member of staff not wearing their uniform correctly they will have their 'uniform card' signed. Three signatures in a half term will result in a lunchtime detention with senior staff. Lost cards will also result in a lunchtime detention. |
