These are given to you to help you keep organised and you must have them with you at all times . You are also given a general work book ( a GWB ) ; this is for most rough working before you write in your exercise book . Again the first one is given to you and if you use if properly you can have another one free when it is full . However , if it is wasted by scribbling and misuse you will have to pay for a replacement . This Planner is more than a homework diary . It is designed to help you to : plan your work ; manage your time ; record your achievements ; review your progress ; set targets for improvement . Your planner should forge a regular link between home and school . It must be signed weekly by you , your parents and your tutor . It should be used to enhance your personal organisation . Make sure you record all homework and when it needs to be completed . Remember to record things that you have achieved both in and out of school . Your planner is so important that your tutor will spend time going through it with you . Each week your parents will sign it and your tutor will check to see how many merits you have earned and any comments your teachers have written in . Your timetable and homework are written in every lesson so it keeps you organised . Replacements are 75p so take care of them .
