Whickham Equipment
As part of our continuing drive to raise standards and achievement, Pupils must carry an equipment pack which enables full participation in lessons.
The equipment pack is critical to ensuring that you are fully prepared to learn and can present your work to the highest standard. We expect you to ensure that your pack is always equipped with the basic equipment outlined in the table below. If a pack is damaged then it is your responsibility to ensure it is replaced with a clear pencil case. Pencil cases must be clear to conform to examination regulations.
