Directed Study Time
In addition to your subject taught time, your timetable will indicate specific hours of ‘Directed Study’ time per week. This time should be used to help you manage your studies but does not replace the need for work to be completed as Homework. Your attendance is required at ALL ‘Directed Study’ sessions in accordance with the room allocated on your personal timetable. A register will be taken during of each session and any unauthorised absence will result in further ‘Directed Study’ being supervised in the Sixth Form study room. Your subject teachers are required to set work for your completion during these sessions in advance and direct you towards resources. It is your responsibility to make sure you arrive with work to complete. You must nominate time for each of your subjects. Students studying the following subjects; Art, Music Technology; ICT; Business Studies or Product Design should nominate one lesson per week in agreement with the subject leader to work in a subject specific room. You will be required to register in your ‘Directed Study’ room first. Your ‘Directed Study’ room is a quiet working environment, please avoid talking. Personal music players should not be used during ‘Directed Study’ sessions.
PLEASE REMEMBER THESE ARE NOT HOMEWORK SESSIONS AND DO NOT REPLACE THE NEED FOR HOMEWORK AND PERSONAL STUDY. Homework will be set by all subject teachers on a weekly basis. Students should be expected to spend 10—12 hours on homework each week.
‘Sixth Form Students have excellent attitudes to learning and make a significant contribution to the life of the College through a range of mentoring and support they give other students as well as their work in the community.’
