BEHAVIOUR

Holiday’ aimed at those individuals who
have maintained a high level of motivation
and commitment since beginning their career
at CAN – we expect them to get involved.
 We, as staff, do not anticipate many, if any,
discipline problems throughout the week –
the Academies sanctions procedure will be
followed where required – each incidence will
be dealt with individually.
 The students are representing our School
from the moment we depart CAN to the
moment we return.
