High School Enrolment for Year 8 students

It is time for families with year 8 students to start considering which high school they would like to attend. Please visit our 'High School Enrolment' page for more information - we will update it if/when we receive information from the high schools but we recommend you visit their respective websites just to make sure you don't miss critical information and dates.

To ensure a safe school environment from Wednesday 1st February our 'Off at the Gate' policy will be implemented.
In summary:

• All student devices must be powered off before coming onto school grounds. No student phones are to be used or accessed at school..
• Phones must be placed in the classroom valuables box at the start of the day. The will be given back just before 3pm.
• Chromebooks may only be used in class with teacher supervision.
• If a student is seen with a device in the playground before or during school it will be stored in the office and a parent must come in to collect it.

Full details can be found on page 6 of the ICT contract.
