board requirements. We will take reasonable care to preserve the Pupil’s work but cannot accept liability for loss or damage caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
6.10 College Trips: The Pupil will be able to participate in a variety of College trips and educational visits whilst at the College. The cost of some College trips and visits will be charged as an extra. College trips abroad or those in the United Kingdom involving an overnight stay will be the subject of a separate agreement with the Parents. The cost of the trip will be payable in advance. The Pupil is subject to College discipline in all respects whilst engaged in a College trip. All additional costs of special measures (such as medical costs, taxis, air fares, or professional advice) necessary to protect the Pupil’s safety and welfare, or to respond to breaches of discipline, will be charged as an extra. The College will do all that is reasonable to ensure that the Pupil is appropriately supervised, according to the Pupil’s age and maturity. 6.11 Transition from one part of the College to another: The Parents acknowledge that in order to progress from one part of the College to another the Pupil will need to meet the academic requirements specified by the College at the relevant time and the College will need to be satisfied that the Pupil will be able fully to access and make a success of the formal academic curriculum in the relevant part of the College. Moving up from one part of the College to another is also dependent upon the Pupil complying with the College Rules and upon the Parents having a good payment record and having paid all outstanding sums due to the College.
