Lost Property
In the unfortunate event that your child does lose something, they should:
- Visit the last area they were in. If the item is not there, they should retrace their steps and check all classrooms/areas that they have been in that day.
- If they have been unable to find their lost item, they should go to their Learning Coordinator and Pupil Reception to check whether the item has been handed in.
Any items that are labelled and that are handed into Pupil Reception, they will return the item(s) promptly to its rightful owner.
Please email enquiries@uals.org.uk or phone 01406 362 120 for any lost property enquiries.
The Junior Leadership Team empowers pupils within our school and wider community to become ambassadors for the school. The Junior Leadership Team plays an extremely important role in the school by representing the pupil voice with their views on changes and improvements to school life. Members of the Junior Leadership Team have to demonstrate qualities such as the use of initiative; being a good role model to their peers and being able to share their ideas with others. Pupils must also be trustworthy, honest, well-mannered and patient, all important skills to have when they move on to the next stages of their education and career.
The Junior Leadership Team is a collaborative and pupil-led group with representation across years 7 to 10. It operates a policy of equality, respect and integrity.
The aim of the Junior Leadership Team is to ensure that every pupil has a voice in the issues which impact on school life and the local community. This is achieved through open discussion with pupils and staff to help ensure the school’s strategic direction will be beneficial to the pupils.
If you normally receive guidance and support at school, don’t worry. If you need to talk to someone while we are closed, you can choose from this selection of services.
