3. To provide a variety of teaching styles and learning opportunities

4. To provide opportunities for students to become independent, confident, responsible and mature learners

What you can expect from the Department

3. A willingness to be available at reasonable times in the event of students needing extra help, support or advice

5. An encouragement for students to develop skills in ICT using facilities within the department and elsewhere in school

6. Any work set will be marked and returned as quickly as possible

What the Department expects from you

Students are encouraged to take responsibility for their own work and progress and to develop the study skills needed for higher education. We therefore expect:

1. A positive attitude, excellent behaviour and a willingness to work hard and the motivation to succeed

2. Prompt attendance at all lessons.

3. The appropriate books and files, along with any homework set, brought to lessons

4. A mature explanation of the reasons for any lessons missed, together with a commitment to catch up the work

Advance notice of any planned absence, so work can be given in advance

5. All work to be handed in on time

6. To show respect for any departmental resources and equipment and to return them after use

7. That you develop self study habits to follow up and consolidate the work done in class. You should be spending 5 hours per week on individual study for each subject studied

8. That you do any holiday work which may be set

9. That you try to attend as many of the additional trips/courses as possible and wherever possible purchase any textbooks recommended for the course of study

Failure to comply with the above expectations may result in withdrawal from lesson, letters home to parents or, as a last resort, withdrawal from the examination(s).
