We are sure you share our excitement at the prospect of your son or daughter joining us at Haileybury. Of course, we understand that some of you will have mixed emotions. Indeed it is this combination of emotions that makes for such a worthwhile challenge, one which everyone at Haileybury will be focused upon over those crucial few days,

weeks and months. If everything goes well at that time then it is most likely that their years at Haileybury will be most successful and fulfilling.

The Haileybury experience will, we hope, see all pupils being happy and cheerful; we also want them to display a strong sense of purpose allied to serious ambition. At the heart of the School lies a value system that emphasises respect for others, a sense of service, a generosity of approach and a spirit of inquiry. Our aim is to help all pupils achieve and

grow within this framework. We want them to be given a very wide range of opportunity so they can discover and develop their talents. We want them to be busy, to get used to

meeting their academic and personal commitments, to be knowledgeable, skilled and self-confident. In our experience, the kind of progress identified above is not visible

at all times, nor is it steady.

Rest assured that everyone at Haileybury will be as supportive as possible. Housemasters and Housemistresses have the prime responsibility in this regard and they will work hard

with you to build up a link that will help your son or daughter achieve and flourish. Of course teachers and prefects, along with others, have the well-being of new pupils as a high priority. It is also important to know that tutors who see new pupils three times a week have a highly important pastoral role. In other words our aim is for the whole

community to work with you as parents so that all new pupils settle in as well as possible.

Parents are very welcome to attend concerts, plays, sports fixtures and many of our Chapel Services, School and House functions.

We look forward to welcoming you all to Haileybury in September!

Weekend arrangementsBoarders may choose to stay at School or go home (or go to their guardians) on most weekends. If they choose to stay at School there are events or trips on both the Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon. If they choose not to stay at School, boarders may leave after their sporting commitment on Saturdays.

• Parents must give permission to the HM if their daughter or son is to leave School for a Saturday night and stay with anybody apart from them.

• Parents must give their consent to the HM or coach for their daughter or son to travel home from a fixture with another parent.

Boarding pupils should return to Houses by 9.30 pm on Sundays or alternatively, with the permission of their HM on Mondays by 8.10 am. The exceptions to these arrangements are on non-exeat weekends.

There are weekend trips and activities available every weekend. Every Sunday morning the Dining Hall offers ‘brunch’ from 11.00 am to 1.00 pm, which is a traditional English breakfast and very popular with pupils and staff.

Speech DayThe School Speech Day takes place on Saturday 23 May 2020; all pupils are required to attend and all parents are invited.

Non-exeat weekendsThere are five non-exeat weekends every year. On these weekends all boarders stay at School on Saturday night and until after the School Chapel Service on Sunday morning. With permission from HMs, pupils may go home from 11.30am until 9.30pm on the non-exeat weekend Sundays.

Haileybury Parents’ AssociationThe Haileybury Parents’ Association (HPA) should not be confused with the PTA role in many other schools. The HPA role is to bring together parents, pupils and staff through social events, functions and new initiatives. The HPA is not a fund-raising organisation, it exists simply to enhance the parent experience at Haileybury.

The structure of the HPA is a committee comprising a representative (House Rep) from each House, plus Chair, Secretary and Treasurer. All roles are voluntarily undertaken by parents of current pupils. A list of the current committee can be found on the Haileybury website. Parents are regularly updated by their House Rep and by the HPA committee on upcoming events.

The HPA is here to support parents and hopes that its events and functions are supported reciprocally. Contact: Sacha Cole – HPA Chair [email protected]

Religious and spiritual lifeHaileybury has an Anglican Christian foundation and the beautiful Chapel is the focus of spiritual life here. During term, most days start with a service in the Chapel. On Sundays there are a variety of services to which pupils, parents and visitors are warmly welcomed. All boarding pupils are expected to attend the morning services that take place on the five non-exeat weekends each year. The dates and times of all services are published on the website.

Each year 20 to 30 pupils are prepared for confirmation and confirmed in a service presided over by the Bishop of St Albans or the Bishop of Hertford.

Whilst we are sensitive to the needs of pupils from other denominations and religions and will make provision for pupils to worship elsewhere when they wish, we nonetheless prefer all pupils, regardless of religious tradition, to join together in Chapel. Any queries about these arrangements should be made directly to The Master.

Haileybury’s Chaplain, The Revd. Chris Briggs is a full-time member of staff and lives on the campus. He is available to provide support, pastoral care and spiritual counsel to the whole community. The Chaplain has a unique role within the Haileybury community and his availability for pastoral support is highly regarded by the pupils and staff.

The New Pupils’ and Parents’ Service, for all new pupils to the school and as many parents as can make the journey, will be in Chapel on Sunday 6 October 2019 at 7.00 pm.

Communication with parentsAs far as possible Haileybury seeks to communicate regular information with parents and guardians by email only. It is therefore vital that the School has your up-to-date email address.

Notification of Reports’ availability is sent by email, as are most information circulars. The College Administrator will contact you annually in September to check that the data we hold is up to date.

UniformThe clothing lists can be found at the end of this booklet. We appreciate parental support in ensuring that pupils arrive at Haileybury correctly dressed. Casual dress may be worn at various times during the week, as defined in the Pupil Handbook. The decision as to what is deemed acceptable rests with the Deputy Master. Parents are responsible for ensuring that any uniform purchased conforms to the School’s uniform regulations. The uniform suppliers are Perry Uniform. Uniform can be purchased online or from the Uniform Shop at Haileybury. Perry Uniform operates an internet-based service and parents should visit their website at www.perryuniform.co.uk to order items of uniform. The helpline for Perry Uniform is 0113 238 9520 and the email address is [email protected] All queries should be directed to Perry Uniform. Please see the uniform section in this booklet for further information.

Overseas pupilsEU pupils (Brexit) Firstly, we want to reassure you that our experienced staff are on hand to guide and support all our European Union (EU) pupils who will be joining us in September. Currently the status of EU nationals already living and studying in the UK remains unchanged until 30 June 2021.

While there is still some uncertainty as to the final outcome of the Brexit negotiations we remain confident that whatever the outcome, our EU pupils will be able to continue to study in the UK much the same way as they have always done. We will of course keep you updated with all the latest developments.

In addition, we retain an excellent firm of immigration lawyers, Fragomen LLP who operate at parliamentary level and provide us with the very best advice and support for all our families. We have established a Brexit Hotline, manned by a team of legal experts at Fragomen LLP, who can provide high level advice relating to Brexit and reassurance to our EU families. Please feel free to use the Hotline during office hours (9.00 am–5.00 pm), Monday to Friday. The Hotline number is 0044 207 090 9548.

International pupils–visa requirementsIf your child does not hold a UK/EU/EEA passport, they will need to apply for a Tier 4 (child) student visa in order to study at Haileybury.

Haileybury will provide a Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies ("CAS") number at the beginning of June 2019, providing that we have received all the required documentation requested. You should already have received a checklist of these requirements. A CAS is a unique identifier number which confirms that the Home Office has given Haileybury permission to sponsor your Tier 4 (Child) application.

The CAS number provided on its own will NOT provide your child entry into the UK. You must use the CAS number to obtain your visa in your home country. Please read the Tier 4 guidance thoroughly. The guidance is available at: https://www.gov.uk/child-study-visa

Visa applications can be submitted from three months prior to the start date of your child's course.

Please contact the Registrar should you have any queries.

Police registrationFor pupils over the age of 16, you may need to register with the police as a condition of your visa if you are from the following countries: Afghanistan, Algeria, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Belarus, Bolivia, Brazil, China, Colombia, Cuba, Egypt, Georgia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Korea (North), Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Moldova, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Peru, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Syria, Tajikistan, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, United Arab Emirates, Ukraine, Uzbekistan and Yemen.

A stamp or sticker will be placed in your child’s passport or a biometric card will be provided on arrival in the UK clearly stating the requirement to register with the police within seven days of arrival in the UK.

The cost of registration is currently £34 and the documents required for registration are: the child's passport, the Tier 4 Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) card and the visa approval letter from the UK Home Office, a letter from the School confirming that he or she is a full time pupil and two passport photographs. The Admissions Department will assist your child in organising this registration.

On registration, a ‘Police Registration Certificate’ will be provided to the pupil. This document should be stored with the passport. Once registered the pupil is required to inform the police and the Admissions Department of any change as below: • Any new landing conditions • Extensions to your visa granted by the Home Office • New passport • New study information or change to educational establishment • Exemption from Police Registration • Change of Nationality

Upon completion of their studies at Haileybury, all registered pupils are required to inform the police of their destination, even if returning home.

Guardians If you live outside the EU/EEA, your child will need to have a guardian. A guardian is someone who will take responsibility for your child while they are in the UK and provide a home if necessary. It is not always possible for some children to return home during the shorter school holidays, i.e. half-terms, and Haileybury cannot be responsible for children during this time.A good guardian should provide a home for your child, take a genuine interest in their progress and welfare and look afterthem just as you would at home. In addition, you may need help with arrangements for travel and visas, for the purchase of school uniform and the many practicalities associated with sending a child to a school overseas.

You may have friends or relatives in the UK, but this is not always ideal if they live far from the College. As an alternative, there are professional guardianship organisations accredited by AEGIS (The Association of Educational Guardians for International Students), which demands high standards of care.

T +44 (0)1453 821293 [email protected] www.aegisuk.net

Please note that we will be unable to issue your child a CAS number until a guardian has been appointed.

Your appointed guardian will be required to visit Haileybury, in person, within the first two weeks of the start of your child’s course. During this visit, they will be introduced to your child’s Housemaster or Housemistress, in order that communication lines can be established. A copy of the guardian’s passport and proof of UK residency will have been submitted prior to your child’s arrival at Haileybury.

Arrival in the UKIf your child is under the age of 16 and will be travelling alone to the UK, please ensure that they are always met by an adult at the airport. This appointed adult must also accompany them back to Haileybury.

In addition, every time a pupil travels to the UK, they must carry with them all of their personal identification documents and a parental letter of consent allowing them to travel on their own. A sample letter has been provided opposite, to assist with the required wording. Please do check with the airline before travel, regarding their own policy regarding Unaccompanied Minors as the minimum age requirement varies across the airlines. There is normally a surcharge for using the Unaccompanied Minor service.

Frequently asked questions1. How do I buy my uniform if I live overseas?Uniform items can be ordered online from www.perryuniform.co.uk or purchased from the Uniform Shop during term time. Appointments may be made via Perry Uniform to purchase uniform at the Shop at particular times in the summer holidays. The helpline for Perry Uniform is 0113 2389520 and the email address is [email protected]. All queries should be directed to Perry Uniform.

2. How do I obtain name labels?Perry Uniform provides a name taping service. Please visit the Perry Uniform web site for further details. Additional name labels, for non-Perry items, can be ordered from Perry Uniform or purchased in the Uniform Shop.

3. Is there a second hand uniform shop?Second hand uniform is available to purchase ONLY on a Wednesday afternoon from the Haileybury Uniform Shop.

All profits made from the sale of second hand uniform goes to our charity HYT (Haileybury Youth Trust). Current parents can donate their uniform to house matrons who will ensure it is sent through to the Uniform Shop.

4. How much money will my child need?Generally pupils are not encouraged to have a great deal of money with them at School. Books, stationery, music lessons etc. will be put on your bill and so usually £20 per week is more than enough. Money can be deposited with your child’s HM at any time and will be kept securely in the House safe.

5. Can my child return late at the start of term or leave early at the end of a term if we can’t arrange the necessary flights?The term dates for the next academic year are published in this booklet. It is very disruptive to the School if children leave before the end of term or arrive late as vital work will be missed. If there is a genuine need for a child to be absent from School during term time, written permission should be requested in advance from The Master.

6. How can I arrange private health insurance?There are several companies in the UK which provide private health insurance. Below are a few contacts:

BUPA 0808 271 4138 www.bupa.co.uk Aviva 0800 068 3827 www.aviva.co.uk AXA PPP Healthcare 0800 111 4004 www.axappphealthcare.co.uk

7. Is there any accommodation near to Haileybury where parents can stay if visiting?There are several B&B’s, guesthouses and hotels close to Haileybury. A full list can be found on our website in the Contact Us / Where to Stay section.

8. What sports equipment will I need to bring?The School will provide basic equipment for all Games Activities. However, those choosing an activity generally prefer to have their own equipment, particularly those playing for School teams. The activities requiring specific equipment are as follows :

Autumn Term – Girls’ Hockey sticks and Lacrosse sticks. Lower School boys’ Hockey sticks.Spring Term – Girls’ Lacrosse sticks and Boys’ Hockey sticksSummer Term – Boys’ and Girls’ Tennis rackets. Boys’ Cricket equipment

If Parents are unsure if they need to buy specific equipment, or not, they should contact Andy Searson, Director of Sport, [email protected]

9. Can I leave suitcases/belongings in school at the end of each term/ half term?Overseas students can leave their suitcase in the House store at each half term/ end of term. The store is locked, but the School cannot be responsible for any loss or damage to property left at Haileybury.

Parent Portal The Parent Portal is a secure website which is accessed from our main website and will be an essential part of our communications with you.

One of the main features of our portal is the publishing of pupil reports to this secure facility which will allow you to view and print your child’s most recent report. You will also be able to view past reports as these are not deleted.

You will receive an email from our Computer Support Department, around the same time as you receive this booklet, introducing the Parent Portal to you and giving you, your secure login details, to register for this. Please can we ask that you Register on the Parent Portal as soon as you are able to do so.

When you have successfully registered, you will also be able to view all the contact details which we have for you and your child on our database and you can update these as often as is necessary. It is vital that we have your up to date contact telephone number, address and email addresses at all times.

If you should have any difficulty registering or using the new Parent Portal or have any concerns associated with this, our Computer Support Department are on hand to assist. Please email [email protected]

The BookroomThe Bookroom supplies all educational text books. Text books are provided for the Lower School and Middle School and need to be returned in good condition at the end of the course or a charge may be applicable. All Sixth Form text books are chargeable. Sixth Form academic books can be returned to the Bookroom for credit at the end of the academic year, depending on condition and subject to future curricular requirement. These second-hand books are available to new pupils at a reduced cost and added to the school bill.

The Bookroom also supplies a range of stationery, as well as some personal items (i.e. toiletries, tights, etc.). These are all chargeable to the termly account but items may also be purchased for cash.

FeesGeneralThe figures below refer to those applicable for the academic year 2018/2019.*

Main School Lower SchoolBoarding £11,474 per term £7,279 per term £34,422 per year £21,837 per year

Day £8,540 per term £5,677 per term £25,620 per year £17,031 per year

* Please note the fees for the academic year 2019/2020 will be published at the end of June 2019.

The Standard Terms and Conditions require that fees should be paid in such a way as to arrive at our bank no later than one week before the beginning of each term. Invoices are normally sent out with details of any extras incurred at least 30 days before payment is due. Please would you make certain that your payments are made on or before the due date which you will find noted on the invoice. If, for any reason, you anticipate difficulty in meeting this timetable please do get in touch with the Bursar either in writing, by email or by telephone. Please note that, under the Standard Terms and Conditions, overdue accounts will accrue simple interest at the rate of 2% per month (24% APR).

Fee remission on account of absenceFees are charged for the year and although split into three equal amounts do not directly relate to each term thus it is not expected that pupils will change from boarding to day during an academic year. Notice is required for both withdrawing a pupil from the School and for changing from boarding to day, please see the Standard Terms and Conditions for details. In an exam year therefore, although pupils may be on exam leave before the official end of term no refund of fees will be granted.

Personal property and the insurance of valuable propertyAll personal property should be clearly marked with name and House. All pupils have a lockable space that they can padlock for belongings. Combination and key padlocks can be bought from the ‘Bookroom’.

All personal property is brought to the school at the owner’s risk and will not be covered by the school insurance except in the event of destruction resulting from a building fire. This limitation also applies to cash and all pupils are strongly advised to limit the cash sums in their possession (rather than in the House Bank) to a minimum. Particularly where valuable items such as watches, sound or speaker systems, tablets, computers, mobile phones, cameras and musical instruments are concerned, parents are advised to consider insuring them under their own “All Risks” policies.

Personal accident insuranceAll pupils are covered by the school’s own policy with Marsh Insurance Brokers which covers permanent injury. Parents are additionally invited to take out dental insurance through the School’s Denplan Scheme. Leaflets giving further details about these schemes will be sent to you with the invoice for the term’s fees in July.

Medical arrangementsGeneralWhen a pupil is admitted to the Health Centre, parents will routinely be kept informed of progress by the HM or Health Centre. In cases of serious illness or emergency the School Doctor will inform parents directly.

It is a condition of acceptance at the School that the School Doctor should have unlimited right to inform the parents or guardians and the Master of confidential information about the pupil if the School Doctor considers that it is in the best interest of the patient or necessary for the protection of other pupils.

Registration for boarding pupilsUnder normal circumstances parents would be given the right to choose for their son and/or daughter any doctor in the area in which the School is situated. As the Governors can allow only the School Doctor to make use of the facilities of the School’s Health Centre, free choice for boarders is impractical and, of necessity, boarders will have to be on the list of the School Doctor.

Parents are asked to signify their consent by completing the “Family Doctor Services Registration” purple coloured form (GMS1). Please enter the address of the School as the home address and the pupil’s home address as the previous address. Please supply as much information as possible, including your child’s NHS number if known. For pupils who have not lived in the UK before, their date of birth and place of birth is sufficient. The name and address of your child’s last registered doctor is essential. This form should be completed and returned to the Admissions Team by Friday 24 May 2019. Please contact a member of the Admissions Team if you have not received either of these forms. Parents are also asked to complete the Anaphylaxis and Asthma forms by Friday 24 May 2019.

Medical examinationsAll new pupils are asked to attend a medical examination in the first term they are at Haileybury. The medical is carried out by one of the School nurses and each pupil also has a consultation with the doctor. The purpose of the medical is to discuss any ongoing medical issues, record any regular medication and familiarise new pupils with the Health Centre and the services it provides.

The School Doctor will contact parents directly if he or she discovers any medical condition requiring further investigation during the school medical.

Tetanus, Polio booster and Meningitis CThe School Doctor recommends that all pupils have a booster of tetanus, diphtheria and polio. This will generally be done during their time in Middles (Year 10) and is in line with Department of Health recommendations.

BCG vaccinationsHertfordshire Primary Care Trust no longer provides Heaf testing or BCG vaccinations for 13-14 year old school children. There has been a change in emphasis for the prevention of TB and ‘at risk’ groups are now identified and targeted. This may affect some overseas pupils, as immigration currently x-ray screen passengers arriving from high-risk countries. Overseas pupils may be asked to attend the QEII hospital in Welwyn Garden City for a TB immunity test. Testing is mandatory even if the pupil has evidence of having had a BCG vaccination.

Some parents have raised concerns as their children have not had the BCG vaccination. This is particularly worrying when travelling abroad. The only advice we can give at the moment is to arrange for your child to have the BCG vaccination carried out privately.

HPV VaccinationsHPV is a vaccination to prevent cervical cancer. The Hertfordshire Primary Care Trust Plan introduced an immunisation programme in September 2008. The HPV vaccine will be offered to all Year 8 girls.

Medical treatment during holidaysWhilst away from Haileybury (i.e. during school holidays), pupils requiring medical attention should make it clear to the doctor attending them that they wish to be seen as “temporary residents” only. This will avoid the need to re-register with the School Doctor on their return.

Prescription chargesPupils who are 18 years of age and under (and in full-time education) are not required to pay for their prescriptions.

Page 22: Contents - Haileybury€¦ · Computer Support Mr Duncan Spooner-Wells support@haileybury.com 01992 702 580 Chaplain The Revd Chris Briggs c.briggs@haileybury.com 01992 706 314 (Office)

20

Private treatmentPrivate health insurance is not provided by the School. Experience has shown that insurance schemes for private patient treatment are very advantageous in the saving of school time, and parents are recommended to subscribe to one or other of the private patient schemes.

Medical arrangements for day pupilsThe preceding paragraphs apply specifically (but not exclusively) to boarders. Day pupils may be registered with the doctor of their choice. The School will carry out all first aid measures in the event of an accident or emergency. Parents, or the pupil’s family doctor, will then take whatever further action is required.

It would be a great help, however, if parents of day pupils would kindly complete the Medical Query Paper (day pupils). Please contact a member of the Admissions Team if you have not received this form.

In an emergency situation, the Health Centre staff will accept consent from a person who has authorisation to discharge responsibility on behalf of the person with parental responsibility, as long as they are in possession of all the necessary facts and that the actions are in the best interest of the young patient, for example School staff.

All boarders’ parents sign consent to emergency treatment at the time of enrolling at Haileybury.

‘Medical Alert’ InformationWhere a pupil, boarder or day, has a medical condition which may suddenly surface in class, in games, in an activity at School or on a school trip, it is important that relevant staff are alert to this before the problem arises. Obvious examples are epilepsy, severe asthma and severe allergies. This is especially important where the pupil has to have special medicine close to hand. To this end, it would be helpful to show such information on the pupil entry in the main school database, accessible to teaching staff. On the Medical Query Paper, please indicate that you give permission for this information to be held on this database. Note: only this specific information will be accessible to teaching staff, not any other information you give on this return.

Medication for boardersMedication can only be kept in House with consent from the Haileybury Health Centre. The Health Centre may consent for pupils to keep and self-administer medication or may request that pupils report to their HM or Matron for their medication. The HM or Matron will take responsibility for any medication that requires refrigeration. Medication that pupils are permitted to keep must be stored and locked in the pupil’s lockable space. They must not allow any other pupil to access or take this medication.

Pupils (or parents) must report to the Health Centre all medication brought from home. The Health Centre will provide the appropriate consent. HMs can store medication overnight until consent has been obtained. Pupils with consent to keep medication such as an Asthma Inhaler or an Epi Pen must carry these to activities.

Learning developmentParents are asked to inform the Head of Learning Support of any diagnosed Learning Needs or Disabilities and if their son or daughter has been receiving extra tuition at a previous school before their entry to Haileybury.

At Haileybury, we will screen all pupils after they join the Lower School, Removes or Lower Sixth. On the basis of the outcome of the screening tests, parents will be advised if we detect any difficulties which should be addressed. During the course of the year should any learning difficulties be apparent, parents will be informed and individual assessments offered. There is an administrative charge for this service and parents will receive a full report. In the event that extra tuition is appropriate, this is normally taught one-to-one or in a small group. Parents must accept responsibility for the payment of lessons, which are charged at the published private tuition rate. Details of the rates will be sent to you with the first term’s fees.

Specialist tuition, tailored to personal needs, is available to all pupils at Haileybury, on an individual basis. Although many learning development sessions take place outside normal lesson times, this is not always possible and part of a lesson might be missed, particularly in the Lower and Middle School. A rotation of lessons will be carried out to minimise any impact.

Those with a Specific Learning Difficulty, such as dyslexia or dyspraxia, are usually identified before entry from information passed on by their prep or primary school, or by parents sending in relevant information, including a report by an Educational Psychologist. The Head of Learning Support who is the Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCo) will contact parents to ascertain whether individual tuition should continue from the outset. Even where this is not deemed necessary, monitoring by the SENCo will take place throughout the pupil’s career at Haileybury. Those with a Specific Learning Difficulty will normally be placed on the school’s Learning Support Register, unless parents specifically request otherwise. For pupils entering the school after the Removes (usually in the Middles or Lower Sixth) it is essential that details of any past, or current, learning difficulties are disclosed. It will not be possible for concessions for public examinations to be granted later on if the school has not been notified at the start of the academic year that these may be required. Should parents feel that further investigation of a possible learning difficulty is required, they must discuss this with the pupil’s HM or the SENCo, on arrival at the school.

Lower School One, Removes and Lower Sixth are given a series of screening tests during the first few weeks of term. If this process identifies any unexpected difficulties, parents will be contacted by the SENCo and monitoring, further assessment, or some individual support might be recommended.

Basic skills are closely monitored throughout the first five years at Haileybury and any pupil who appears to require extra help with English, Mathematics, time management and organisation, or any other area of study skills, could be referred by teachers or tutors to the SENCo. As well as internal referrals, parents may request assistance, through the HM or tutor, or by contacting the SENCo.

Focus, where required, in the Sixth Form, will be on study skills, time management and essay writing. Lessons generally take place during a private study period. At this point, the objective is not to give extra lessons in the specific subjects being studied, but to facilitate learning in a more general way and to promote autonomy.

An additional charge as set on the Schedule of Fees, paid termly with the school fees, is made for any tuition received.

Individual music lessonsMusic lessons are taught on a one-to-one basis by the visiting and full time staff of the Music Department. Tuition is offered in all orchestral instruments as well as piano, organ, singing, percussion (both drum kit and orchestral percussion), saxophone, harp and guitar (classical and electric). Pupils learning instruments are expected to participate in orchestras, bands, choirs or ensembles when they have become proficient. To provide motivation, progress and fulfilment, we encourage all pupils to take examinations and perform in concerts. All pupils will be encouraged to improve their general musicianship (reading notation, sight reading, aural skills etc.); music theory teaching in a small group setting is also offered free of charge up to Grade 5 level. We welcome pupils to use our extensive facilities for practice in their free time between the hours of 7.00 am and 10.00 pm. Pupils use House codes for secure areas in the evenings and early mornings.

If your child is to learn an instrument outside of Haileybury we would still like to involve them in school ensembles; please complete the appropriate section of the form and return it to the Admissions Department.

If you wish your child to have instrumental music lessons, please complete the form on the Parent Portal by Friday 24 May 2019.

Please note written notice is required to cancel music lessons. Please refer to the full terms and conditions under the music section of the main website for further information.

LAMDAThe London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA) is offered throughout the school as part of a wider programme of activities including sports, arts and other interests. Details of these are provided at the beginning of term. Candidates take LAMDA examinations regularly. If you wish your child to take part please complete the form on the Parent Portal by Friday 24 May 2019.

LAMDA examinations are designed to equip candidates with a range of skills that will serve them throughout life, to develop communication skills and to refine technical artistry. There are many choices in the LAMDA syllabus and we offer all grades and Bronze, Silver and Gold medals. LAMDA examinations now give pupils UCAS points which can assist in University entry and both British and foreign pupils find LAMDA most beneficial with their English studies. It gives students confidence and our students regularly achieve Gold medals in Acting, Public Speaking, Devised Performance and Verse and Prose. Some of our previous students have gone on to study at professional acting schools and in any event, the skills gained by studying LAMDA can be used in all areas of a student’s life.

Lower School pupils will be asked at the beginning of term to sign up for LAMDA. A consent form is sent to parents at the beginning of the Academic Year by Dr Pugsley.

Main School pupils wishing to have individual or small group lessons require parents’ permission. Please complete the form on the Parent Portal by Friday 24 May 2019.

SportCo-curricularCo-curricular

One of the most exciting things about joining Haileybury is the variety of activities on offer and the almost endless number of opportunities within the School.

It is my hope that all new pupils find challenge, fulfilment and enjoyment through the co-curriculum but also that they understand the importance of taking opportunities when they come their way. While sport, music and drama make up the core of the co-curricular

programme, the wider offer really is spectacular too. From a thriving Combined Cadet Force, canoeing at the Olympic Park, one of the best established Model United Nations

programme in Europe, mountain biking, bee-keeping and public speaking (TEDx Haileybury), to dance lessons, archery, climbing, robotics and STEM club, there

really is something for everyone. It is firmly my view that young people develop character, identity and confidence through these experiences at School and my advice for all

new pupils is therefore very simple; to get stuck in! Audition for the choir or a drama production, even if (perhaps especially if) you haven’t done so before; try a new sport; sign up for the Duke of Edinburgh Award group or start a rock band. Consider doing all four! Haileyburians are known for their courage and resilience. Equally, a sense of

adventure and a passion for one’s interests are both defining characteristics in the oldest pupils in the School. I hope very much that all new pupils will develop these attributes through engaging with the co-curriculum and, perhaps most importantly, that they will

have a wonderfully happy time doing so.

International SocietyWelcomes all international studentsWe meet every Monday over lunch; reps from each house promote internationalism within each house and extend the hand of friendship to build relationships and friends for life.

Our aims are:• To create opportunities for international students to get together with their own national or cultural group and to relax

with others from their own part of the world. • To celebrate cultural festivals in addition to Christian festivals we celebrate Jewish New Year, Chinese New Year, Holi

Indian festival of colour and Eid al-Fitr. • To raise the profile of international students and to celebrate the rich diversity that the international students bring to

the community. Haileybury has always been outward looking; its embrace of internationalism is long-standing; we are a British school which attracts a significant number of pupils from Europe and further afield. These pupils greatly enhance the Haileybury community; they help give us our special identity. At the same time we embrace and uphold British values, sing the hymns in chapel and learn from one another. We believe we can be inclusive and exclusive at the same time.

• We aim to become as integrated as possible and to build life-long relationships as global citizens.

What does the International Society do? The International Society makes ourselves known to the international pupils. In week 2 we host suppers in Dining hall for the people from the 5 biggest communities; Italian, German, Indian, Chinese speaking, Russian speaking. Every boarding house hosts a smaller event in the first term eg Hailey hosts a Malay supper, Edmonstone celebrates Thanksgiving, Alban’s has a Turkish get together. As a School we celebrate and promote International Week in February working with Rev Briggs and presenting chapel services. There is a Bollywood section in the dance show; we are happy to help promote any event which is important to any cultural group. We work hard to build confidence in our pupil body and to support international students helping with any homesickness or specific issues. We are planning new events at weekends specifically aimed for the full time boarders.

We can arrange for newcomers to have a ‘buddy’ contact prior to their arrival. Any questions at all please contact Mrs Alison Baker: [email protected]

Model United Nations (MUN)

Model United Nations (MUN) is essentially a role-playing exercise, in which young people assume the roles of diplomats. Through this, pupils develop their knowledge and understanding of a wide range of international issues, from deforestation to the situation in the Middle East, as well as improving their public speaking and debating skills, and learning how to solve problems constructively. One of the great strengths of MUN is that it is pupil-led, with sixth formers taking the lead in running weekly sessions, and playing a key role in organising our own annual conference.

We offer a variety of different sessions during the week, for those at difference stages within the School, and with different amounts of experience in MUN. All the sessions are run by sixth form pupils, aided by members of staff. Sessions feature a variety of different activities, including speaking games, practice debates, training in various areas of speech-making and resolution-writing, and a chance to research and prepare for upcoming conferences.

The Haileybury MUN conference, which takes place over a weekend at the end of March each year, is the second largest in the UK, typically involving over 150 Haileybury pupils and 600 visitors from around the world. We also attend a number of other conferences at other schools, ranging from one-day events at local schools to The Hague International MUN, which is the largest and most prestigious conference in Europe.
