Lockers
Lockers are available for all students and are located throughout the building for students to store their books, PE kit and coat during the school day. The majority of the lockers have a padlock fastening mechanism, please provide your child with their own small padlock to secure their locker. Lockers will be allocated during the induction day.
The school cannot take responsibility for any loss of valuable items. Students must take care of their own property and take full responsibility for it. Valuable items such as mobile phones should not be brought into school and may be confiscated.
We understand that many students carry mobile phones for safety’s sake on the journey to and from school. However, all students know that they must be turned off and must not be used for the duration of the school day. Again phones may be confiscated if this rule is broken and phones will be kept in the school safe until a parent collects it.
First Aid Room
The school has a well-equipped First Aid Room where your child can go for first aid if needed. If your child is taken ill or has an accident, you will be contacted and your help sought in arranging for your child to be taken home or accompanied to hospital.
