New Intake Evening 2020 v3

welcome everybody to secondary transfer on this is presentation to

get you ready for September 2000 and 20 first.

The first thing to say is that this is a

seven year journey that we're embarking upon on.

The vast majority of you will work all the way

through and finish at the end of 2000 and 27.

I realize that seems like a very long time away,

but it will go fairly quickly.

I'd like to talk a little bit about the ethos

of the school.

We are a school which has two things to consider

for everybody on the first is that there are no

limits. And secondly, the answer is yes, I can.

And if we have that philosophy on life, then things

will usually work out for the best.

So perhaps you can remember that when you start in

September, the next thing is a little bit about standards

and expectations.

I realize you will have read all of this before,

but attendance is really important in this year at school,

we are able to do our job.

So we do expect everybody to attend every day behavior,

of course, his importance and in school like Sandringham, not

school. We have exceptional behavior on a soon as you

start, you will see how the others behave.

And that's what you It's nothing.

Ask the ordinary.

Be polite walk, don't run.

Talk that shouts.

Hold the doors open, smile on things like that and,

of course, quality.

Whenever you're doing some work.

What we hope happens is that you always do your

very best when sometimes you'll do a bit of work.

And when you re read it, you'll realize that maybe

you could have done slightly better.

And so re doing a bit of work is not

a bad thing.

Our core values are the three arts responsibility, relationships and

respect and we'll be going through with you what those

mean over the seven years that you were at the

school, and we find that these will help all of

this adults as well as students in the school to

get on better.

And, of course, our motto is that everybody can be

somebody on.

We really believe that that would apply to you.

You will be part of a house on.

There are eight houses in the school.

As you can see, the house competition runs throughout the

year and at the end of the year we have

a house day where the house with the most points

he's given a trophy.

This is a really important part of the school because

it allows us to enjoy cells, have a bit of

friendly competition, do some things which maybe would normally do.

So There's how spelling house arithmetic of this house sports

house arts You name it something for everybody.

So allow young people get involved in this.

Ah, nde.

Every bit of work you do potentially can add to

the house points because you get commendations, which we now

call house points.

As you may know, we run.

Bring your own device at the school on.

This is a key aspect off the school.

As you know, we run.

Bring your own device school on.

This is a very important part of how we operate.

So every student has a device.

It's usually a tablet.

Ah, a lot of people have apple my pants, but

they're not the only thing that will work at all

on. Did we use these in every lesson where another

important aspect of the work we do is bring your

own device on.

Every student has a device that they bring in.

It's a tablet device on dhe.

We are used.

Okay. Another food.

About another key aspect of the work of the school

is the bring your own device on every student has

a device that they bring in on.

Staff will use thes during lessons where they think it's

appropriate. Not every lesson will incorporate use of a device,

but you need it there just in case.

And, of course, all of the work is uploaded to

Google Drive so that you can access things in the

evening. You can look in your homework.

You can even submit some work online.

You have a calendar to keep track of what's going

on, so it's a really useful part of your equipment.

So that's bringing around You.

Got Uniform is an important part of all schools in

the United Kingdom.

On sand, William is no different, so we have a

very smart uniform, as you can see there at the

bottom. That's what the boys and the girls were aware

on. Dhe, Then above are just some examples of the

sports uniform.

All of this is detailed in the information that you

sent out to everybody.

Some of it can only be obtained from Stevenson's in

town. Other parts can be bought anywhere, but we do

expect everybody to be in the correct uniform on where

it cried.

That's really important on Dhe, of course, not just last

year in school, but also when you're walking to school,

walking home, always make sure that you wear it correctly.

Communications an important part of any large institution.

And we take pride in trying to communicate as well

as we can with you.

So there's our websites, and this is a new website

this year.

We think it is fit for purpose, covers everything you

might want to know about in school.

But if there's anything missing, dentist letters, no.

And we'll put it in there.

Of course, there's the weekly Sam Prince a tw the

moments, of course, in Lock Down, where it's sending this

out twice weekly to improve communications.

Normally, it goes out on a Friday to everybody on

we celebrate with wonderful work is going on in school

on a Friday there's our regular Twitter feed, and you

may already be following us on Twitter.

If you're not, I would recommend it.

It's where you can get the latest up to date

information about what is going on.

And, of course, there's parent mail, which we send outs,

and you'll receive this when there's something important.

Maybe some documents as well.

The need to come out specifically to the parents now

getting to school.

The vast majority of you live very close to the

school on the reasons for that simple.

We are so popular, and they were subscribed.

Unless you live recently close, then you currently can't get

in. So the vast majority off you will walk into

school, and that's important.

It's healthy, gives you an opportunity to chat in the

morning and talk about the day when you're going home

to be easy.

Some review or cycle something like 25% do cycle to

school. Andi.

If you do that, that's fine.

We have cycle sheds where your story cycle nice and

safely, but you must wear a helmet when you're cycling

on dhe.

Try and make sure that you don't want anybody over

when you're cycling.

That's very important.

Of course, some of you who live in Wheaton students

need to get the coach on these school coaches some.

Therefore, that's how you travel in.

We do expect everybody to be in school by 8

20 in morning.

That's to make sure you're ready for assemblies, which begin

at 8 25 on other activities.

So on a lot of young people getting much earlier

than that and they'll go to their form room or

that sit outside, reading a book or chatting or doing

something to get ready for the day.

Your form tutor is probably the most important person in

the school for you.

They are there to look after you, and so they

will kind of your mom or dad to ask you

in school.

And, of course, there the first person that you should

talk Teoh, either as a student if you got a

problem, or mums and dads.

If you need to get in contact with any body,

then it would be three former chooser.

And of course it's really important we look after you

on this is cool, your well being.

Ah, nde There a couple of things here.

We do want everybody to be happy, genuinely so there

may be a few days when you know that isn't

always case.

But by and large, you will be really happy at

school. Make lots of friends on, of course, get on

with each other.

Ah, nde part of well being is that you will

be successful at the end, and that's really important to

us because he makes you feel really good.

So by adopting everything that we have school, I'm sure

everything will go very smoothly on.

There will be no issues at all and nothing for

you to be worried about.

The last thing I'd like to say is just about

some other basics.

So mobile phones.

I'm sure you're well aware that we do allow you

to have a mobile phone, but you mustn't be visible

during the day.

It must be switched off.

It is only there for emergencies before school or after

school. If there's an emergency during the day, then we

have phones here and we will phone home contact that

way. So we do ask mums and dads not to

try and contact your Children by mobile to in daytime.

That's very important.

Security could be finding them important time when they're in

the middle of a lesson just comes out of school

and for students.

I'm afraid if we do see you with a phone

out or misusing it, then there are consequences.

Ah, Nde.

I'm sure that that is something you want to avoid.

So for me, Mr Gray Head and school, I really

looking forward to meeting you.

We will be starting in September.

The announcement has now been made by the government on

Dhe. The moment the plan is that you'll come in

on Thursday, the third of September for the whole day

as an induction, that which obviously we've missed.

In June, I on we will give you an opportunity

then to meet everybody in person on Dhe to look

around the campus and get familiar with the place before

all the rest of it students joined suit.

So have a very enjoyable summer holiday.

Everybody on dhe.

Welcome to Sandra
