To support the transition from Key Stage 4 to the Sixth Form (academic, cultural, social)
To foster a sense of ‘community’ amongst the year and within tutor groups by providing opportunities to meet fellow students and staff and take part in activities
To introduce students to strategies for effective studying and independent learning, for example through “Elevate” and use of study periods
To raise awareness of, and aspirations towards, Higher Education and Post 18 options in general

decisions should be made to Mrs Johnson

LUNCH TIME AND HOME STUDY LEAVE
Students may leave the school at lunchtime
provided that they have brought in a
permission note from home and that they
sign out and back in again
Students will be able to nominate
afternoons when they have no lessons for
home study. Not Wednesdays. They must
sign out in the Upper Common Room (UCR)
or at Reception.
![Page 15: Life in the Sixth Formkechg.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Y12-Transition-2016.pdf · Aims of Year 12, the first term To support the transition from Key Stage 4 to the Sixth Form](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042314/5f01d5267e708231d4014282/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Authorised Leave for Educational Visits During the course of her sixth form studies your daughter is likely
to have access to a range of excellent opportunities outside school.
These may include University Enrichment Courses, Taster Days,
Open Days, Residentials etc.
We recognise the value of these experiences; indeed, many of
them may be recommended by members of staff.
However, we are also concerned that we maintain the generally
excellent attendance which research shows contributes
significantly to successful academic outcomes.
Therefore:
![Page 16: Life in the Sixth Formkechg.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Y12-Transition-2016.pdf · Aims of Year 12, the first term To support the transition from Key Stage 4 to the Sixth Form](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042314/5f01d5267e708231d4014282/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
5 DAYS
Your daughter may take up to a total of 5 days for educational
experiences such as those above. If she goes on a 5 day residential she will
need to visit universities at weekends; if she goes on a 1 day university
taster experience she will have 4 days left for open days, etc.
She will need to bring in a note for each absence, as usual, as well as
evidence that it is a proper educational event. This should be given to Mrs
Scott Thompson, who will keep a record.
Work Experience should be arranged in enrichment week (17th-25th June
2017) or during the 13 weeks of school holidays
We hope that this system will allow your daughter to take advantage of
the best of both worlds.
