Home study is an exclusive privilege for Sixth Form students who demonstrate consistently strong engagement, effort, and commitment to their studies.
Students may earn a home study on a weekly basis by meeting the following criteria:
- Be in the top two students within their form group for positive Class Charts points
- Have 0 negative behaviour points
- Achieve 100% attendance for the week
- Have 0 lates for the week
In addition, students can have a home study formally added to their timetable where they meet sustained expectations:
- Year 12 students may have a home study added from January, provided their attendance, punctuality, and CTL (Commitment to Learning) meet minimum expected standards.
- Year 13 students may have a home study added from September, provided their attendance, punctuality, and CTL meet minimum expected standards.
Expectations
Sixth Form students are expected to maintain:
- High levels of attendance and punctuality, recognising their significant impact on attainment
- Consistently strong attitudes to learning and behaviour
- Positive engagement across all subjects
Strong attendance and punctuality are key indicators of a student who is dedicated, motivated, and well-organised, and are also important for university and employment applications.
Additional Information
- All students must sign in and out using the attendance iPads when entering and leaving the Sixth Form.
- Home study is a privilege, not a right, and will be reviewed regularly. It may be withdrawn if expectations are not maintained.
