Study Facilities and Internet Use

Students must have the facilities required to be successful in their school work, and this will often require online work completed at home, including Zoom/Google Classroom and other digital tools.

Study Facilities:

A private desk and a lamp with a comfortable chair will help your student to work well in their rooms. Unlimited wiFi must also be available to the student at no extra cost, although this can be switched off at 10pm if you feel that the student is spending too much time on their devices at night when they should be sleeping.


Electronic Devices and Internet Use:

You will need to discuss the use of electronic devices and set some boundaries around this. Very often students who are using electronic devices until the early hours of the night are too tired to concentrate on their schoolwork. However, due to time differences, this may be the only time that it's possible to speak with family - so a balance must be found. If you have any concerns about this, please contact the school.
