ADVICE TO PUPILS

During your time in hospital, we'll help you to continue developing the four capacities of Curriculum for Excellence - to become a Successful Learner, a Confident Individual, a Responsible Citizen and an Effective Contributor.

 

We ask that you abide by 5 simple ground rules:    

  1. Follow timetable Remain in class. If you need time out, tell your teacher and inform school nurse.
  2. Engage in class Engage with your work to the best of your ability to meet targets agreed with your teachers.
  3. Show consideration Try to participate in group activities. Be open to receiving and giving constructive feedback.
  4. Follow directions Be co-operative with staff, whether they're teachers or part of the wider medical team.
  5. Wait to be dismissed - It's good manners but it's also for safety reasons.

 

Your number 1 priority while you're in hospital is your recovery.

However, try to remain ambitious in terms of your academic progress too. 

  • Strive to complete any work set out by HES and base school teachers. 
  • If you encounter difficulties, please talk to us and we'll help you prioritise and negotiate more appropriate targets.
