Welcome to Sixth Form JESS Sixth Form has one express aim: to offer the best educational journey students aged 16-18 could possibly experience. This is achieved through a focus on two key areas: academic excellence and extensive pastoral support. As a leading educational institution in the Middle East, we at JESS have an unfaltering commitment to supporting our students achieve the very best results possible whilst also producing holistic young people whose core being is characterised by principles of caring, open-mindedness and respect. How do we achieve this? Three distinct aspects highlight what makes JESS so successful in delivering on this expressed aim. Firstly, our teaching and support staff build strong, formative relationships with our students whilst leveraging the support our parents provide at home. In short, we come to know each and every child in our care extremely well and can thus best support them irrespective of what stage of their education they are on. Secondly, our staff are highly skilled and vastly experienced in delivering the programmes we offer, be they the IB Diploma, the bespoke IB Diploma Courses or the Extended Level 3 Diploma (BTEC) in Art, Business or Sport. Each department has one or more IB examiner within the team with some also featuring official workshop leaders and even published textbook authors. JESS also acts as a training hub for teachers within the MENA region, offering numerous professional development opportunities for staff from other schools. Suffice to say, we know our stuff and the students in our care are the natural beneficiaries of this collective expertise. Lastly, the JESS Sixth Form comprises a team of ten dedicated professionals each with a specific remit such as pastoral provision, core coordination, university counselling and administrative support. Each member of this skilled team is focused on delivering the best and most comprehensive support to our Sixth Form students. Combine this with a purpose-built Sixth Form Centre, a tailor-made PSHE programme aimed at bringing to life the IB Learner Profile and JESS's Mission Statement of ‘Making a Difference’ and you have an inkling of what makes JESS students excel. I look forward to welcoming you all to our part of the school.

First Days in Sixth Form Induction JESS Sixth Form's Induction Programme runs throughout the first month of school and begins with an entire day dedicated to the development of soft skills such as collaboration and teamwork. It will also provide the opportunity to relay critical information that will help students make the transition from Year 11 (Grade 10) and become accustomed to the rhythms, expectations and procedures that govern life in the Sixth Form. Following this, certain periods through the next four weeks are dedicated to upskilling students and preparing them for the rigours of a post-16 education. This includes being trained on things such as referencing and citing, conducting research and carrying out literature reviews, organising their CAS profiles, developing research questions and other such necessary elements. Dates and timings of the Sixth Form Induction Programme will be emailed to new parents as soon as they are finalised.

Uniform and Dress Code Smart Attire In recognition of a sixth former’s growing maturity, there is no formal uniform requirement but rather a dress code based on generally accepted business principles. The aim is to promote self-management and independence as well as getting students accustomed to presenting themselves in a more adult manner. We believe the dress code strikes a balance between some degree of individuality and the importance of setting an example to the younger members of the school community, parents, and visitors. We require students to cooperate with the school on this distinct privilege of not having to wear a uniform. Failure to adhere to the dress code may incur sanctions such as a verbal warning, formal letter home, reflection session, removal from lessons or being sent home to change. All clothing must be respectful of local UAE customs to ensure modesty and decency at all times. In general terms, the following apply: Clothing must fit (i.e. not be too small, short or tight) Clothing should not be transparent or expose parts of the body that would cause offense (including midriffs, legs above the knee, shoulders and backs) Undergarments and tattoos should not be visible The national attire of all countries is welcome so long as it adheres to the points above relating to local sensitivities around modesty and decency and is considered formal attire in its place of origin. All sixth formers are required to wear a school lanyard (gold-coloured) with their student ID card at all times so they may be recognised by staff and visitors as JESS Sixth Form students.
JESS Sports Kit For the purposes of health and well-being, Games is a compulsory part of the curriculum for sixth formers. Students may wear PE kit on Games days or when they have a fixture in the morning or at lunchtime. For days on which the student has a fixture after school, they should wear business attire and change into PE kit at the end of the day. Students are not permitted to wear PE kit on non-Games days unless permission has been granted by the school. Whilst in PE Kit, students will need to have hair tied up and all jewellery removed (with the exception of simple stud earrings). Students representing the school in teams will need to purchase the appropriate team kit. For further information, please see the JESS Sportswear and Swimwear Guide.

Attendance & Punctuality Expectations School gates open at 7.20am and we expect students to have arrived by 7.35am at the latest. Other than when fulfilling the requirements linked to accessing the Community Centre or during study leave periods, students are to remain in school at least until the end of formal lessons at 3.20pm. Students are entitled to study in the Sixth Form Centre from 6.30am each school day. We understand that illness and unforeseen circumstances may interfere with a perfect attendance record, but would be concerned if students fail to meet our expectation of at least 95% attendance. Frequent absence will have a negative impact on performance and on the student’s overall IB or BTEC grades. Attendance is vital during internal assessments and when group assessments or preparation for group assessments, such as interactive orals, are being carried out. Absence in these situations would have a negative impact on the marks attained by other students in their group.
Authorised absences Illness or a medical appointment which cannot be arranged out of school hours A religious holiday University interviews Attendance at a funeral for a close family member or friend Attendance at a wedding for a close family member A driving test Examination/Study Leave
Unauthorised absences Holidays or leisure activities Paid employment Birthdays/other celebrations Driving lessons CAS activities Working at home on schoolwork or coursework Staying home to revise for external examinations (such as ACTs) Leaving the country before term ends University Open Days
Absence Reporting All absences must be reported on a daily basis. Absence that is not pre-arranged, such as an illness or medical appointment, must be reported before 7:15am that morning using the link: Illness and medical appointment report, online form
Exceptional Leave Exceptional leave can be requested using the same form mentioned above in a pathway called Exceptional Leave. Alternatively, use this link: Exceptional leave request online form Please request and communicate an exceptional leave request as far in advance as possible.
University & Careers University and Careers Counsellors Applying for University is a key part of Sixth Form life at JESS. The school employs two University and Careers Counsellors. Students will have access to careers and university application advice during their time at school and can make an appointment with the University Counsellor as required. It is our firm recommendation that parents avoid employing the services of external counsellors or counselling groups as the in-school provision is robust enough to cater to the requirements of university applications.
Online Learning & Support Packages The school provides access to several online learning platforms and support packages to assist students during their time in the Sixth Form. These can be accessed at school and home and include:
Provides cloud-based access to all the Microsoft suite of products
On-line digital textbooks which supportDP subject content and assessment by providing immediate feedback alongside learning analytics and focused revision content Online platform to enable students to organise their work, track assessments and receive up-to-date information on their subjects
Provides support for all aspects of a university application
A plagiarism detection programme to help students identify mistakes in citations and to improve their academic writing
Students are expected to act in a responsible manner and manage the use of the packages in accordance with the school’s digital policy
The Sixth Form Centre Designed with students at its heart The Sixth Form Centre is a multi-purpose space specifically designed for and exclusively accessible to Sixth Form students. The design, layout and feature-set of the space is the end result of feedback from students and staff and adheres to three guiding principles: 1.Function: the space caters to the needs of students (e.g. power access, study spaces etc). 2.Practicality: the space is easy to maintain and clean and resilient to frequent use. 3.Warmth: the space has a cosy feel and is a place students are comfortable working and relaxing in. As such, the Sixth Form Centre includes a wide array of features including: extensive soft furnishings and moveable laptop tables (many with included power/USB outlets) a fully-fitted kitchen area (complete with stove, oven, microwaves, kettles, toasters, etc.) a large study hall with sound dampening furnishings and flooring/ceiling. an internal courtyard that can be used for a range of activities a 5 meter TV screen for presentations/viewing the Sixth Form Office providing students access to key staff and university counsellors four private meeting rooms catering for between 1 to 8 students The Centre may be used by students from 6.30am onwards, during study periods, break times and after school until 6.00pm (at the discretion of the Sixth Form Team). The expectation is that students who remain after school hours do so for the purposes of study and revision. If a member of staff, including the site Security Team, requests students leave the space after school, students must do so. Students are expected to adhere to the regulations stipulated below for use of the Centre but which can be largely summarised under the key term of 'respect'. Keep the Centre neat and tidy at all times. Students are expected to clean up after themselves. To avoid permanent stains or damage, the consumption of food and beverages (with the exception of water) is only permitted on the tiled (non-carpeted) areas of the Sixth Form Centre. The same restriction applies to furniture with fabric coverings. Student possessions (e.g., laptops, books, folders etc.) must be stored in bags and stowed in the storage area or carried with students rather than left lying around the Centre. Students must not place their feet on the tables and couches. Furniture that has a power outlet built into it should not be moved. Students should stay clear of the screen, not lean on it, or throw items anywhere towards it. Students should ensure they remain mindful around electrical appliances and turn them off when done using them.

Sixth Form ID Cards Identity Card All Sixth Form students will be issued with an Identity (ID) card, which can be used for: Access to school School printing and photocopying Payment in the JESS Diner.
Access Students are responsible for the safekeeping of their ID card. If lost, a new card must be purchased from the cashier, next to reception, at a cost of AED30. Students have the privilege of leaving the school premises in order to visit the Community Centre during lunchtime. The following conditions must be adhered to: Students must wear their ID cards at all times during the school day. If students wish to visit the Community Centre at lunch time, they must leave through one of the designated gates and scan their ID cards as they leave and re-enter the school. Use of another student’s card will result in withdrawal of this privilege. Students may leave during lunchtime only. Students must return to JESS at least five minutes before lessons start to ensure they have time to collect their equipment from the storage area. Students may leave school to visit the Community Centre only, not to return home or finish early. Students may not use their ID card for signing out if they feel unwell. In this instance, they must go to the nurses and follow the correct procedures. Expectations for behaviour in the Community Centre are high as students are ambassadors of the school. Students must follow JESS rules for behaviour and respect the general environment and other people using the facilities. Any misconduct may result in losing this privilege. This privilege is for Sixth Form students only and they should not agree to buy food or other items for students in other Year groups.
Printing and Photo Copying Sixth Form students are allocated an individual budget for their printing and copying needs and are expected to manage their account to ensure they can print the work necessary for their course. Once students have used their budget, additional printer credits can be purchased through the JESS cashier.
JESS Cafeteria The school cafeteria provides a range of fresh, nutritious meals prepared on-site each day. Students can choose from a variety of vegetarian and non‑vegetarian dishes, as well as sandwiches, salads, wraps, and healthy snacks. JESS remains a nut‑free school. Parents can register any additional allergens through the school’s designated cafeteria system to ensure that their child’s dietary needs are clearly communicated and safely managed. At the start of the academic year, all new students will receive an email containing: A step‑by-step guide on how to register for the cafeteria system Your child’s student information, including their Student ID If families require assistance at any point during the school year, support is available through the school’s cafeteria helpdesk. Contact details will be provided in the registration email and on the school website.
JESS Cafeteria Account How to create an account JESS operates as a cashless school. As such, you will need to create a Spare App account and add credit to your child’s student ID card to enable purchases in the canteen. New students are permitted to use cash until they receive their Student ID card (usually within 7 to 10 days). To create an account, click here and follow the detailed guide and video tutorial.

Yondr at JESS In August 2024, JESS became the first Yondr school in the UAE. So what is Yondr? In summary, the Yondr is a mobile phone solution that utilises a simple, secure pouch that securely locks away a mobile phone to prevent its use. Every student at JESS is required to secure their mobile phone in a personally assigned Yondr pouch during form time, each morning. This means that students will not have access to their mobile phones during the school day. Students are required to bring their Yondr pouch to and from school and are responsible for their pouch at all times. It allows students to take responsibility for their phone, without the distraction or temptation of using it throughout the school day. Student’s will be assigned a brand new Yondr pouch on their first day of school. This will be handed out to all students, with a brief presentation on how to use the pouch along with the rules around this. There is a one time cost of 100AED to purchase the pouch, which will be invoiced via accounts in due course. The pouch is designed to last for the duration of a students journey at JESS and is the responsibility of the student to take care of it. For any students who do not own a smartphone, we would like you as the parent to sign this Exemption Form so that we can make their tutor aware.

SECURE
RELEASE
On arrival at school, phones are secured inside a Yondr pouch.
The pouch is locked and kept in the student’s possession at all times.
On leaving school, students tap their pouch on an unlocking base.
The House System A traditional British house system The house system is very much a part of life at JESS with house competitions and house points creating a community for peers to support one another, to engage in competition, and to work together to make a positive contribution to the school community. The house system helps to develop a strong sense of identity and belonging, and creates opportunities to celebrate achievements and instil pride amongst students. All students are allocated one of four houses on enrollment. Our houses are: Tahr (black) Oryx (white) Panthera (red) Falco (green) House t-shirts are worn several times a year during competitions, Mindbeat Days, Bonanza Days and house events. They are compulsory to purchase; this can be done online from our PE kit supplier, J20 Sports, once students start at JESS.

Parent Communications Communication Channels Our main method of communicating with parents is through our Parent Portal and Parent app, which both draw information from our data management system, iSams. Much of the data is personalised to year groups so that you only see documents and files that are relevant to your child/ren, such as timetables, key dates and information;. Importantly, this is the only method that we use to share reports and assessment results. This link to our Parent Portal goes straight to the login window, so it’s a good idea to bookmark this for future reference. You can also access the parent portal at the top of the JESS website.
Parent Portal If you haven’t already activated your Parent Portal account, you can do so with the personal registration number and password shared in your confirmation email from the registrar. Once registered, you can download the iSAMS parent app from your usual app store. When prompted, enter the JESS code, which is JDXB, and the username and password you created when activating your account. You will only be able to see information related to your child once they start school. Until then, you may not have any children associated with your account. If you do not have the activation code or you have any problems accessing the portal/app, email parentportal@jess.sch.ae or contact your school reception.
Adding multiple schools on the Parent Portal App We appreciate you may have students attending different schools in Dubai. If these schools are using the iSAMS app for communications, it is possible to have all the school communications coming through. Note, you will need the iSAMS code from each school to complete this process: 1. Open the app 2. On the dashboard, select ‘Settings’ in the bottom right-hand corner 3. Select the ‘Manage Schools’ option and then select your school 4. Enter the school code. For JESS, this is JDXB
Parent ID Badges Photographs for Parent ID badges Each parent at JESS is provided with an ID badge for when they access the school premises. If you are new to JESS and don’t currently have a child in school, please submit a photograph of both parents to the following email: fvisser@jess.sch.ae These will be available for your collection at the start of the academic year.
HalPay Application Payments of all school-related trips and activities HalPay App is a new payment application designed to make managing payments for schoolrelated activities and trips easier and more efficient. Please note that the app does not support payments for tuition fees and debentures. This modern, user-friendly platform allows parents to track all transactions in real-time, providing enhanced transparency and access to a detailed history of payments for recordkeeping. Our goal with the HalPay App is to make school payments more convenient and hassle-free. We encourage all parents to download the app from the App Store or Play Store and explore its features. Here is the video tutorial on how to use the Hal Pay app. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_o9m-Ps7QI If you have any questions for anything accounts related, please contact fees@jess.sch.ae or accounts@jess.sch.ae

Making the most of Sixth Form Top Tips 1.Use study periods effectively. Students need to take personal responsibility and use the time to finish their work, revise, improve their personal statements or research their university options. 2.Take full advantage of the opportunities offered by the Sixth Form; make use of the staff and attend revision sessions. There is plenty of scope to volunteer or undertake positions of responsibility. 3.Maximise attendance and communication; we can only support you if you are in school and we know how you are feeling. 4.Look after yourself and your friends. Prioritise sleep, nutrition and exercise – this will enhance both your academic performance and overall sixth form experience. 5.Use the Careers Counsellor and our university software to help guide your path after JESS. 6.Read around your chosen subjects, using the suggested reading lists and online courses – wider reading is one of the things most valued by universities and will support your academic performance. 7.Set a positive example and get involved in the wider school. It is the responsibility of the Sixth Form to be role models for the younger students. 8.Use the Sixth Form Centre to study; it will be open to you before and after normal school hours. 9.Work hard, have fun, work a little bit harder, enjoy the experience and work as hard as you can!
