In the event of unacceptable behaviour or attitude from a Sixth Form student parents will be contacted and asked to come into the school to discuss the best way forward for the student. A copy of the Sixth Form Disciplinary Policy can be obtained from sixthform@alsagerschool.org
No Sixth Form student should ever say that s/he has no work to do! Even if they do not currently have an assignment for a particular subject there is always some form of independent learning that students can be doing, for example reading around the subject in journals and on the internet, reviewing and highlighting class notes, organising files, etc. They are encouraged to make good use of their study periods and can do so in school by either working in the LRC or the Sixth Form Area. Some subjects such as Art and Music allow students to work in their dedicated classrooms during study periods. Year 13 students may also work at home in their study periods but Year 12 students are asked to remain on site unless they have a study period during lesson 5 at the end of the school day. If a student persistently fails to meet deadlines for work set s/he may be asked to sign in at one of the study areas until s/he is up to date.
