Coming to class fully prepared is about more than just having the right gear; it’s about respecting the learning process and ensuring that every minute of our lesson counts. When you arrive with everything you need, you demonstrate a readiness to engage and a commitment to your own progress.
Lack of preparation doesn't just affect your own momentum, it can disrupt the flow of the entire class. To maintain a focused and productive environment, we utilize a tiered system of "Kit Marks" to track readiness and provide the necessary support to get back on track.
Consistency is key to your success. If you find yourself repeatedly missing required items, the following steps will be taken to help you recalibrate:
Kit Mark 1: A 1-1 conversation with your teacher to discuss what happened and how to prevent it next time.
Kit Mark 2: A formal email notification sent to both the student and parent/guardian.
Kit Marks 3 and 4: The incident will be logged on PowerSchool, triggering an automatic parent email alert.
Kit Mark 5 (and beyond): A lunchtime detention will be issued. This will be logged on PowerSchool, and a direct email will be sent to parents to discuss further intervention.
Pro-Tip: Check your bag the night before. Future-you will appreciate the extra five minutes of sleep and the stress-free start to the day!
