A few more things to remember!<br />
Personal Relationships<br />
The school tries hard to promote and encourage friendly and positive<br />
relationships between students because this is one of the keys to a civilised and<br />
well-ordered community. The guiding principle on personal relationships for the<br />
whole community must be respect for others at all times. This includes<br />
respecting those who have different values and opinions. It also includes<br />
behaving in a considerate manner that considers the feelings of all. For this<br />
reason, excessive displays of affection, apart from normal greetings, are not<br />
allowed. Sexual relationships between students are forbidden in any<br />
circumstances. Students who overstep the boundaries will face serious<br />
disciplinary action.<br />
Personal Property<br />
All personal property including clothing, shoes, sports kit, calculators, etc, must<br />
be clearly marked with your name and RC number. Cloth label tapes on clothes<br />
must be sew-in not iron-on. We do not advise the use of marker pens on clothing<br />
items.<br />
This is<br />
really<br />
important<br />
!<br />
Do not bring expensive items to school including mobile<br />
phones. They are not covered under <strong>Ratcliffe</strong>’s insurance<br />
and we cannot be held responsible for<br />
loss,<br />
damage or theft.<br />
Lockers<br />
A charge of £5 is made<br />
to replace lost keys.<br />
A locker is provided for all students, which have their own key. Students will be<br />
informed at the start of the year whether or not a padlock is needed. Students<br />
must take responsibility for their own locker and make sure that their<br />
possessions are properly secured. A minimum charge of £5.00 will be made to<br />
replace lost keys. Tutors will carry out locker inspections during the course of<br />
the year to ensure that they are being used appropriately.<br />
School bags, books and files should be safely stored in your son’s/daughter’s<br />
locker and only the books required for each lesson or pair of lessons should be<br />
carried with them. You are able to access your locker every day at times set out<br />
below to re-organise. You have ample opportunity to organise your academic<br />
books and files during the School day:-<br />
