Parents’ Guide to Learning Styles and Revision Techniques


At Sheffield High School we recognise and celebrate that every girl will learn in a different way.
We have deleoped a booklet to help parents support their daughters as they settle into the Senior School. It looks briefly at different learning styles and ways of supporting pupils in lessons and as they prepare for examinations. The booklet also touches upon Emotional Intelligence and how it can help pupils to succeed in everything they do.

Parking


In the interests of maintaining good relations with our local neighbours, all parents are kindly asked to show consideration when parking and picking up their daughters from school.

Please do not block driveways or sound your horn to attract your daughter’s attention.

Corporate Sponsorship Programme


Our Annual Fund campaigns in School have been very successful over the past few years we are now responding to the suggestion from a number of parents that we also launch our own Corporate Sponsorship Programme.

Corporate Sponsorship in School enables parents to sponsor various aspects of our activities such as school events, individual pieces of equipment or to advertise their business in one of our publications.
