Academic Attainment. The college does not guarantee a particular level of achievement for each student. Achievement depends greatly on the individual talents of the student and the student’s willingness to work for their own education. We will act in the best interests of the student and student body generally. This may mean we do not always act in accordance with the parents’ requests. It is the expectation of the college that parents will be responsive to the informed educational recommendations of the college in regard to the student’s educational progress. I/We will encourage our child to apply themselves to all aspects of college life to the best of their ability. I/We also agree to provide all necessary books and equipment as indicated by teaching staff.
