We want you to enjoy school and so we will give you every chance to get really involved in your learning. We understand that many young people have not been happy at school, and we will think about ways we can change this.
You will have a key teacher who is there to help you with any worries you might have.
You will be able to do lots of different things in school and will be involved in making choices about some of your subjects and in setting goals in literacy and numeracy.
