Behaviour and Expectations
Mr Hutchinson
Head of Year 11
The Golden Rule
We expect all students to follow our GOLDEN RULE:
Shirley High School students are expected to
show consideration and respect to all members of
the school and local community at all times.
The ABC of Success
• We believe that students will be successful if
they focus on their ABC:
– Attendance
– Behaviour
– Commitment
Attendance and Punctuality
• The biggest barrier to achievement in year 11
is non-attendance (including poor
punctuality). Please get in touch as soon as
possible if there are any issues concerning
attendance.
• attend@shirley.croydon.sch.uk
Behaviour Policy
• Our new Behaviour Policy can be found on the school
website along with our Attendance and Punctuality;
Assessment, Recording and Reporting, and
Homework policies.
• These new policies are designed to ensure improved
consistency across the school.
• Please take the time to read these documents.
Uniform
•
•
•
•
•
Tie, jumper (and skirts for girls)
should be bought from Hewitts.
We ask you to follow the school
uniform policy to ensure uniform is
consistent throughout the school.
Plimsolls and trainers are not part of
the school uniform. Students wearing
incorrect footwear will be asked to
change.
Year 11 students do NOT need to
wear blazers, but if they choose not
to, they must wear a jumper instead.
Hats and hoodies should not be
worn on the school site at any time
and will be confiscated. This is for
the safety of all members of the
school community.

Student Planners
• Students are expected to have their student
planner with them at all times.
• Planners must be produced immediately if
requested by any member of staff.
• The planner is the simplest form of
home/school communication. Please check it
regularly and contact your son/daughter's
tutor if you have any concerns.
Expectations
• We expect ALL students will achieve 5 A* -C GCSE
grades by the end of Year 11.
• Attainment grades in Key stage 3 show this is
possible
• This can only be achieved if students, staff and
parents work together.
• Please feel free to email me on fhu@shirley
croydon.sch.uk if you have any questions or
concerns.

Deputy Headteacher
Standards and Achievement
How do we do it – strategies that deliver success for all?
– PiXL (Performance in Excellence) membership x 700+ = schools
– Our targets for students come from ‘FFT D’ estimates (top 25% Nationally)
note ‘school’s actual 2013 results = value added factor – FFTD – 85% (5+ A* C passes) actual 99.4% = +14.4% factor and FFTD 63% inc. English and Maths,
actual 63%
– Individual One to one meetings with students x 3 per year to review progress.
The Year 11 students will have their 4th 1:1 meeting with me the week
beginning 7th Oct. Note preparation sheets.
– We issue grade reports x 3 per year to monitor and report progress which we
internally monitor on a further 3 occasions per year. We state ‘current
performance’ and FFT D estimates – all parties should know where their child
was at the end of Year 10.
– In addition we offer: One to one and small group teaching and support,
additional lessons afterschool, bespoke timetables, and a whole school
commitment to achieving success.
Standards and Achievement
Key Points - continued:
– We focus on reporting ‘indicative’ grades i.e. A3, A2, A1
– We focus on a minimum of two sub-levels progression per year e.g.
• Student ‘A’ in July of Year 10 = B1 for English
• Student ‘A’ in July of Year 11 = A2 for English
– We expect students to: complete all set homework, read and action
all assessment comments by their teachers (reference research done
by John Hattie), attend extra classes, complete all classwork and ask
for help.
– To support their studies all Year 11 students will issued with a special
USB stick which will have the Year slogan on it.
