Expert Learner

A student’s attitude to their learning in school is the single most important factor in academic success, and our Expert Learner scheme aims to recognise and encourage all of our learners to strive to be the best they can be.

The scheme runs in three sessions over the school year. Each term students record their progress against their academic targets, as well as attendance, punctuality, reward points, behaviour points, equipment, PE kit, homework, extra-curricular activities and citizenship. These scores give a grade each term which classifies our students into 4 groups:

Expert Learners

^

Advanced Learners

^

Developing Learners

^

Potential Learners

Each term is a new beginning, so every student has the opportunity to aspire to be an Expert Learner, and to improve their attitude to learning each term.

We recognise and reward our Expert Learners each term, with activities intended to add to their ‘cultural capital’ and expand their horizons.

Visits include Bletchley Park and the Museum of Anthropology and Archaeology in Cambridge.
