1. Expectation Cards Pursue Excellence – Be the best

2. Expectation Cards At Castle View we expect our students to conduct themselves in an exemplary manner at all times and to follow the school rules. To help students with this, we have introduced an expectation card that all students will be given. The expectation cards will also allow staff at Castle View to monitor standards more effectively. By following the school rules students can earn rewards. There are sanctions related to the expectation cards which are listed in the following presentation that has gone out to students in assemblies. If you have any queries relating to the new cards please do not hesitate to contact your child’s head of year. We appreciate your continued support and co-operation
