Registration and tutor period

You should be in your form room by 08:45 and have all the equipment that you will need for the day.

Your Form Tutor will register you in school and keep a record of your attendance – any late registrations and absences will be included in your report.

What is the role of your Form Tutor?

Your Form Tutor is the first person to greet you in the morning and get your day off to a good start and is also the first point of contact for any issues or concerns that you may have during the school day. They are all there to help you to be happy at school, to feel safe, to promote your learning, to help you build good relationships and to encourage your personal development.

You will meet your Form Tutor in your form room every morning. They will give you information about things that are happening in school that day or week. They will also collect any notes from your parents about medical or dental appointments, absence and other matters.

Your Form Tutor will also take an interest in your life outside of school, as well as monitor things such as correct uniform and completion of work set by your subject teachers. They will also accompany you to assemblies. You will have a period with your tutor group daily. This is an opportunity to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes you need to keep you healthy and safe, and prepare for life and work.

Your Form Tutor will monitor your progress and will write a comment about your achievements on your progress report. They are available to meet your parents when they come in to discuss your progress – we encourage students to attend progress meetings with their parents.

If there is a fire drill, you should follow the evacuation procedure. Your Form Tutor will meet you on the school field to register you and make sure that you are safe. Walk in silence out of the school.
