School Rules

We expect everyone at The Study to be kind, courteous and considerate at all times. Below are some rules to ensure our school is a safe and happy one:

• Be in your classroom by 08.45 at the latest.
• Walk in single file along the corridors and on the stairs and keep to the left.
• Always hold open the door for the person behind you, and for visitors.
• Wear the correct school uniform. Shoulder length hair should be tied back with the correctly coloured band or ribbon.
• All school clothing and possessions should be clearly named. Shoes and trainers should be marked with indelible ink. Should there be any un-named uniform left at the end of term it will be given to charity.
• Keep any money in a named money belt or give to your form teacher.
• No jewellery should be worn in school (with the exception of official medical bracelets and small plain stud earrings). Make-up and nail varnish are also inappropriate for school. Girls from Year 3 upwards may wear a named watch.
• Books should be brought to school in a school book bag (Pre-Prep) or rucksack (Prep). Swimming things should be brought in a waterproof bag (not plastic carrier bags).
• Always hand in your homework at the correct time. In the Prep Department if you have a good reason for not completing homework your parent should write a note in your Link Book. Your Link Book must be signed every evening by an adult.
• Go outside promptly at break times, except when it is raining or you are attending extra lessons or clubs with a member of staff. Normally if you are well enough to be in school you are well enough to go outside.
• Mobile phones should not be brought into school unless needed for security reasons. In that case they should be handed in to the office on arrival at school and collected on the way out.
