A few more things to remember! Personal Relationships The school tries hard to promote and encourage friendly and positive relationships between students because this is one of the keys to a civilised and well-ordered community. The guiding principle on personal relationships for the whole community must be respect for others at all times. This includes respecting those who have different values and opinions. It also includes behaving in a considerate manner that considers the feelings of all. For this reason, excessive displays of affection, apart from normal greetings, are not allowed. Sexual relationships between students are forbidden in any circumstances. Students who overstep the boundaries will face serious disciplinary action. Personal Property All personal property including clothing, shoes, sports kit, calculators, etc, must be clearly marked with your name and RC number. Cloth label tapes on clothes must be sew-in not iron-on. We do not advise the use of marker pens on clothing items. This is really important ! Do not bring expensive items to school including mobile phones. They are not covered under <strong>Ratcliffe</strong>’s insurance and we cannot be held responsible for loss, damage or theft. Lockers A charge of £5 is made to replace lost keys. A locker is provided for all students, which have their own key. Students will be informed at the start of the year whether or not a padlock is needed. Students must take responsibility for their own locker and make sure that their possessions are properly secured. A minimum charge of £5.00 will be made to replace lost keys. Tutors will carry out locker inspections during the course of the year to ensure that they are being used appropriately. School bags, books and files should be safely stored in your son’s/daughter’s locker and only the books required for each lesson or pair of lessons should be carried with them. You are able to access your locker every day at times set out below to re-organise. You have ample opportunity to organise your academic books and files during the School day:- 47
Before School - 8.00 am to 8.20 am Morning registration - 8.25 am - 9.00 am during tutor time or 8.45 am - 8.50 am when there is not an assembly Break time - 11.00 am - 11.20 am Lunchtime - 1.15 pm - 2.15 pm After School - 4.10 pm - 4.40 pm Sports bags and bag racks Students in Years 7 to 13 have been allocated bag racks both external and internal, which they are to use on days that they have their sports bag in School if their locker is full. Please can you remind your son/daughter that their sports bag must be taken home every day and not left in School overnight. The School cannot be held responsible for the safety and security of a bag left overnight at School. Furthermore, sports kit may be needed to be washed or changed, depending on what kit is required. 48
