Incomplete homework will result in a departmental detention. Teachers will share the date, time, and location, but students are responsible for attending. Missing this detention will result in an N3.
Note for Year 7: Pupils receive one second chance for incomplete homework before a detention is set. Failure to complete the work by the new deadline will result in an automatic departmental detention.
All departmental detention days can be found below:
| Monday | Science, MFL, PSHE, Art |
| Tuesday | English, History, Textiles / Food |
| Wednesday | Geography, RS |
| Thursday | Maths, Engineering, Computing |
