Student Profile:
PAIGE, from Malbank - studying Chemistry, History, Biology, English Language
"Sir John Deane’s has been the perfect stepping stone towards university. Having studied here I feel like a much more independent person and more ready to face the world outside of education. The opportunities presented to me by the Biology Department have been great: The talks are really interesting and the dissections are extremely helpful with classwork. The trips are informative but always amazing fun and the Biology Club helped me to prepare for university well in advance. The Biology staff genuinely want to help and their support has been fantastic. Sir John Deane’s has been amazing!"

Attendance
All students at Sir John Deane’s are on a full-time course and you must attend for the whole of each term except where specified periods of Study Leave for examinations are permitted. Success at this advanced level is very closely linked to continuity of study so it is essential that students maintain full attendance throughout your course and parents/carers are asked to ensure that family holidays do not intrude into the term. Any requests for absence must be made in writing to the student’s Senior Tutor at least four weeks in advance.
