LEADING THE SCHOOL

At JCSC, our sixth form students are expected to be role models for other students and also to engage with our wider community. We strongly believe that post-16 education is about more than academic achievement and we’ll encourage you to develop new skills and to be a good citizen. In the summer term of Year 12 you’ll take part in our in-school volunteering programme to give back to the school and your fellow students. You might find yourself giving classroom support to lessons for younger students or helping out with lesson preparation, or working as a student mentor tasked with intervention assistance. Some students share their interests and talents with our younger pupils by helping out with extra-curricular clubs at lunchtime and After School Clubs such as art, creative writing, code, drama or climbing club. Sixth formers also have the opportunity to raise awareness of and money for different charities or to represent their peers as a Form Representative.

CULTURE

Day to day life at JCSC can truly be as busy as students chose to make it. All students are encouraged to volunteer within our school and are seen as role models and leaders within our school community. Sixth Form students frequently support younger students within lessons and interventions whilst they support extracurricular clubs at lunchtime and after school. Additionally, students will have opportunities to raise awareness of and fundraise for different charities and events throughout the school year.

All students in Sixth Form are allocated to a Sixth Form house which they will represent throughout their time in Year 12 and 13. Students compete in weekly house competitions ranging from sporting events to year group challenges seeking to earn house points. House competitions are a weekly highlight and allow students to showcase their many talents outside of the classroom.

We ask all parents and carers to download the My Child at School App to receive messages and news. You will also be asked to keep permissions for photography and video recording of students up to date in the app. We celebrate student successes and share news and important announcements on the school news page and our facebook account.

Parents and carers are kept up to date with study progress through reports and parents evenings, which take place each year, though if you have any concerns or issues we encourage you to get in touch straight away. Ms Young, the Sixth Form Pastoral Support is always happy to talk to students and parents.
