Aspire, Achieve, Enjoy Specialist School for the Performing Arts © Maghull High School 2011 Parent Forum Students are given the opportunity in Year 8 and 9 to have a say in the curriculum they follow.  This requires them to reflect on their strengths and weaknesses and make decisions about the best way forward.  As parents try to advise and guide their child down the best path, it can be quite a stressful time.  To help you manage this period, Mrs Bennett will explain the processes involved and factors which should determine your child’s choices. Educational Psychologist Preparing for and undertaking exams can be a stressful experience for young people and their families. Based on current psychological research and thinking, this workshop will look at the effects of stress on performance, methods of managing stress and how best to support young people through exam time. The Rights Respecting Schools Award The Rights Respecting Schools Award is an initiative by UNICEF UK.  At Maghull High we have received our ‘Recognition of Commitment’ to this award and developed a school charter to support this.  One of the greatest challenges that schools face is to define a clear set of values – not just rules - that has been developed with the full involvement of the school community and is actively upheld by pupils. UNICEF UK’s RRSA initiative helps schools to use the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) as the values framework that enables this to be achieved. Right Respecting Schools involves all students and staff at Maghull High School by highlighting their rights alongside their individual responsibility to ensure the school is a better place to learn and work.
