“ At Henry Beaufort School there are no limitations to individual success; We do not accept mediocrity or complacency” Attitude Monitoring Attitude to Learning and Home Learning Grades (A*-C): A*: Students have consistently looked for opportunities to extend their learning. They are enthusiastic and self-motivated and always exceed expectations. A: Students have met deadlines, are organised and prepared to work. They are responsible and maintain their concentration. B: Students have sometimes lacked motivation. They do not always concentrate on the task and may have difficulty meeting deadlines in some areas. If this continues the student will not attain their TMG at GCSE at the end of Key Stage 4. C: Students do not get involved with their work. They fail to complete tasks set and can behave in an irresponsible way. This results in poor progress and underachievement. This is a serious cause for concern and so the student will be placed on subject report.
