Standards and Expectations

We have high expectations of our students’ behaviour, attitudes to work and dress.  

Great importance is placed on appearance, attendance and punctuality.  Therefore all learners will be required to carefully observe agreed protocols, be respectful of policy and adhere to procedures in respect of health, safety and well-being.  We expect students to behave in a way which reflects the professional approach to learning and the working environment they will regularly visit.  Students at De Salis will know how to act in the workplace, fitting in with established practice and procedures. This approach to high standards of behaviour and professionalism forms solid working relationships between local employers and students. 

Safety and safeguarding is of paramount importance and as such, all placements will be assessed and closely monitored by our team of Personal Coaches.  Throughout all of their work experience placements, students will be supported by their Personal Coach who will visit them to monitor their progress and to ensure they are effectively demonstrating the CREATE skills.

As everyone is expected to be physically active in order to help maintain a healthy lifestyle, students at De Salis are encouraged to make good use of the organised programme of sport and leisure activities.
