Our Learning Support Co-ordinator and team of Learning Support Assistants further enhance this work by assisting in the planning and delivering of appropriate work for all students and, in particular, our most able and those with special learning needs. We have high expectations in terms of behaviour, school dress and standard of work. Good achievement and sustained effort are encouraged and rewarded by a system of merits and commendations. We have a clear Code of Behaviour which has been develpoed to encourage a sense of the rights and responsibilities of each individual and applies to students and staff alike. We expect everyone who joins us to abide by The Sandon School Code of Behaviour.
Good discipline is reinforced by a clear sanctions policy.
Progress from subject to subject and in the wider aspects of school life are reported to parents through a system of progress reviews and annual reports. These give very detailed information about achievement and offer suggestions about improvement. They aim to encourage students to be constructively self-critical and to appreciate their own potential. Each student leaves The Sandon School with the National Record of Achievement, reflecting not only their academic progress but also personal qualities and successes. The extra-curricular element of The Sandon School has always been given considerable emphasis and importance within the whole school community.
