STUDENT CHARTER
Queens’ is a community and will only thrive if you give to the life of the school as well as take. This is a guide to help you understand where you can help the staff and where they can help you.

You can expect a lot of help and encouragement
from Queens’ but please respect this Charter and
try to help the school by following it!
This student Charter was created by a special committee of the School Council. This committee was made up of students from all Years and Houses. If you have something you want to raise about the school, the Charter or how the aims in the Charter are carried out, there is a place where a point can be raised. This place is the School Council.
