Expectations & Revision Strategies
How much work should I be doing at home?
1 - 2 hours a day of additional work outside of normal lesson time
2 - 4 hours over the weekend
This may sound a lot but those of you that do this develop the ability to manage your time which will become important, especially as exams approach.
Behaviour expectations:
Teachers will give break time, lunch time and after school detentions to students for poor behaviour
After school detentions for poor behaviour are 30 minutes in length the following day
Phones seen anywhere in school will be confiscated and returned to the student at the end of the day
