PrivateStudy&Homework

Prep is set on a regular basis by subject teachers to encourage pupils to work independently. It is important that boarders arrive at supervised study time well prepared and on time. If for some reason a boarder will be late for a valid reason s/he must see the tutor on duty to let them know – it is only polite and good-mannered to do so.

Our prefects are role models to younger boarders as well as big brothers and sisters in the house. They also report back to House Parents if younger boarders aren’t behaving as they ought to or experiencing difficulties.

The heads of house are responsible for overseeing the prefect team alongside the House Parents. This includes creating and monitoring a prefect duty rota.

It is important that homework is completed on the day that it is given, unless other school commitments prevent this.

Duty staff will monitor homework completion during the supervised study time time and through use of Google Classroom.

Boarders in Years 11 and Sixth Form are expected to do their own private study in addition to the supervised study time session. Study sessions are provided after supper to enable athletes to complete homework around their training schedules.

Parents of boarders who go home at the weekend are responsible for checking your child’s homework over the weekend.
