All students need a bag, their planner, a pen, a pencil, a ruler, a scientific calculator and a reading book. Your P&A mentor will be checking every morning in P&A Time that you have everything you need and will lend you a pen or a pencil for that day. The Year Office will give you a spare planner page if you forget your planner.

Toilets SO DON’T ASK IN THE FIRST PLACE! Starting from September you will only be allowed to leave lessons once a day from lessons. You will need to have your planner so that the teacher can write into it a time and date of when you have gone. If you ask again the same day the teacher will see that you have been and therefore will refuse you. SO DON’T ASK IN THE FIRST PLACE! Toilets should be used before school, at snack breaks and after school if needed. The College has accessible & gender neutral toilets. CCTL
