Which subjects are taught at JCG?

You can view all of the subjects we offer here

Cada departamento elige la titulación que considera más adecuada para nuestros alumnos y nuestra filosofía educativa. En algunas asignaturas, consideramos que el IGCSE ofrece una experiencia académica más rigurosa y agradable que preparará a los alumnos de forma más eficaz para sus cursos de A level, pero hay otras asignaturas en las que creemos que el GCSE ofrece igual rigor.

How much homework do students receive and how can I check what has been set?

The amount of homework set depends on a students’ year group and varies depending on subject. All homework is set though ShowMyHomework. Students and parents receive logon details for this.

How does my child track and receive feedback on their work?

Students are given regular feedback on their work and they should be aware of their grades. All information on tracking and reporting is available, just speak to your child's teacher. 

What is academic mentoring?

Academic mentoring is an integral part of the tutorial system and academic mentoring sessions are an opportunity for a conversation between a mentor and student related to learning. Academic mentoring enhances the ethos of tracking student progress to ensure that each student knows where they are with their learning, where they have made progress, what they need to do to improve and what targets they need to set in order to further their progress.

How do tutor groups work?

When they start at JCG, each student will be placed in a House tutor group. If there is a family link with a house, this information is considered during the application process. Tutor groups meet twice daily and are crucial to the pastoral care of students and they remain the same throughout a student’s time in the College. Students do not attend subject lessons in their tutor groups.

How do teaching groups work?

Each student is placed into a teaching group. In Year 7-9, students will access the majority of their lessons in these groups. The groups will change at the beginning of Year 8 and Year 9. After Year 9, teaching groups vary and are often determined by the options students select for their exam subjects.

Is there career guidance and support for students wishing to move to higher educations, employment or further education?

JCG is fully committed to ensuring our students are prepared for the opportunities and challenge that they will encounter after leaving College. There is an annual JCG Careers Fair, students access lunchtime talks, there is full support for applications for the students’ next step.

What do we do I do if my child needs to miss school?

Any requests for absence to attend a medical appointment should be emailed to [email protected]. Emails requesting absence for other reasons should be addressed to the Head of School or the Head of Year and also sent to [email protected].

How do Parents Evenings work?

We have some Parent Information Evenings. This is when parents are invited in to hear general presentations and talk about information pertinent to them and their daughters. We also have Parent Evenings for year groups when appointments are made via the Parent Evening Booking System for short consultations with subject teachers. It is important to note that parents are encouraged to contact teachers if they have any concerns or queries and not wait for a Parent Evening. Invitation letters are always emailed to parents for these events.

How do students become involved in drama productions, orchestras, choirs, sports teams or other extra-curricular activities?

What books will my child need?

We ask all students to purchase their own textbooks and an up to date list of required books for year 7 and where to purchase them can be found here. 

Some of our courses use an online textbook resource which the College provides free of charge, giving students the option to buy a physical book if they wish. Despite the digital age, where information is easily accessible, many students still favour a physical text book over a digital equivalent. In listening to our students and how they learn, they tell us that, where a good textbook is available, they would learn more effectively if they have ownership of the resources required for their studies. This personal ownership allows the textbook to be personalised and annotated according to the individual student’s need and style of working. The new style of subject specific textbooks facilitates and encourages this further. 

The structure of textbooks has developed considerably, with detailed contents and glossary pages and chapters which have a logical flow, building upon the prior knowledge acquired in previous chapters. Different topics are usually presented in a similar stimulating format; this familiarity enables students to focus efficiently on the content and explanation. Many textbooks contain pages with the key learning objectives, examination hints and self-assessment questions. Furthermore, students embarking on their university studies feedback that their A level textbooks remain an essential resource during the initial months of their course.

Does JCG have a house system?

Yes we do and house activities are very important in the College. More information about the school houses is available here

Are students given the opportunity to contribute their opinions on the running of the College?

Yes. One of the main vehicles for doing this is JCG Voice which allows many ways for students to express opinions. As part of this each form has a representative on Student Council. 

Where can a current student find out all the information they need about the College?

A current student has access to the student portal. This area includes information, for example, about term dates, JCG Voice, JCG Serves, use of technology, surveys, food available in the Dome, relevant policies and how to report bullying. 

What is the JCG Foundation?

The JCG Foundation was launched in February 2011 as a Charitable Trust to support current and past students and education in Jersey. The Foundation raises awareness of our College within the local, national and international community.

Reconocida como uno de los lugares más seguros del mundo para vivir, Jersey ofrece aire limpio, playas impresionantes y el entorno perfecto para prosperar. Como importante centro financiero, Jersey alberga algunos de los principales bancos e instituciones financieras internacionales, situados a sólo 40 minutos de vuelo del centro de Londres.

¿Necesito solicitar un visado de nivel 4 para estudiar en el Jersey College for Girls?

Aunque forma parte del Reino Unido, Jersey es un Estado autónomo con sus propias aduanas e inmigración. El proceso de solicitud de un visado para estudiar en el Jersey College for Girls es relativamente sencillo y se tramitará a través del Director de Internacionalismo. Usted solicitará a través del sistema del Reino Unido, pero la documentación y los requisitos son diferentes a los de un visado Tier 4 estándar del Reino Unido.

¿Debo solicitar mi visado a través del proceso de solicitud del Reino Unido?

Sí, sin embargo...

Para entrar en Jersey con fines de estudio, los estudiantes pueden necesitar una autorización de entrada. Una autorización de entrada es un visado o certificado de entrada expedido con el fin de viajar al Reino Unido y a las Islas. Las solicitudes de autorización de entrada deben presentarse en el país en el que el estudiante reside actualmente, en la Embajada Británica, Alta Comisión u otra Misión Diplomática Británica (conocidas colectivamente como Oficinas Diplomáticas Británicas) designadas para expedir la autorización de entrada.

Para iniciar la solicitud de visado, diríjase al siguiente enlace:

https://visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/other-ooc

  1. Desplácese hasta Comenzar ahora y seleccione:
    Visitar, estudiar, trabajar o establecerse en determinadas dependencias de la Corona británica, países de la Commonwealth o territorios británicos de ultramar.
  2. Desplácese hasta Siguiente y seleccione
  3. Y continuar en consecuencia.

Es fundamental que seleccione la categoría de Dependencias de la Corona Británica para asegurarse de que su solicitud de visado del Reino Unido sea considerada por la Oficina de Inmigración de Jersey.

¿Viven los estudiantes en una pensión?

No. Nuestros estudiantes internacionales se alojarán en familias anfitrionas. El alojamiento en familia ofrece a los estudiantes internacionales la sensación y el apoyo del hogar mientras estudian en el extranjero. Las ventajas del modelo de alojamiento en familia incluyen una integración más rápida en la vida del Reino Unido y una mayor tasa de mejora en el inglés hablado, lo que mejora la comprensión de la lengua y la cultura británicas. Se hace todo lo posible para garantizar que nuestros estudiantes internacionales se alojen en un hogar acogedor y solidario donde puedan apreciar plenamente las ventajas de la vida en la isla y aprovechar al máximo su experiencia de aprendizaje.

¿Cuál es el proceso de solicitud a través de Admisiones Internacionales para la educación de 14+ y 16+ en JCG?

Las estudiantes que deseen solicitar plaza en el Jersey College for Girls deberán presentar un formulario de solicitud, además de una copia de su pasaporte, una copia de dos informes escolares recientes, un ejemplo de un escrito reciente en inglés y cualquier certificado de exámenes ya superados en inglés, por ejemplo, IELT, etc. (se requiere un nivel mínimo de IELTS 6 para estudiar en Key Stage 4 o 5 en JCG). También debe completar la sección ESOL del formulario de solicitud.

Is it a requirement that my child have a device?

Yes, it is a requirement.  Having a device will enhance your child’s access to learning resources and enable them to develop the digital skills to support their current and future learning. 

Why does my child need their own device?

Learning extends beyond the classroom: Using their device begins at school, but its effect transcends classroom walls. After school, students can access the same educational software and apps because they own the electronic devices used in the classroom. After all, learning doesn’t have to stop just because the school day has ended. 

Students are more likely to use familiar devices: If you want students to do their work, let them use the tools and devices they know. They can customize their smartphones and tablets by downloading the apps they find most useful. Being comfortable with devices comes from hours of practice – in their own time. This is precious time that most teachers cannot afford to give up in the classroom. 

Why has JCG chosen to recommend iPads?

When we started this journey, the first thing we did was to work out what we needed from a device rather than what device we needed. The 3 main requirements were:  touch screen device, keyboard, and some form of digital stylus. 

With these criteria we started looking for devices. There are a few which meet our criteria, however, the iPad came out top due to price, reliability and ease of use. 

Another advantage of going with iPads is the easy-to-use restriction settings allowing parents to add additional management to the devices. 

What happens if my child forgets their device or it is broken?

The IT Department will have a limited number of devices available to loan out if your child has forgotten their device or is unable to bring it to school, for example if it is being repaired. 

Will it involve a lot of screen time? Will they be using them for all core subject lessons? Will they still be writing on paper?

At JCG we will be taking a blended approach to using devices to enhance learning. By using digital device, we can take advantage of AI programmes enabling students to customise parts of their learning journey and to progress through content at their own pace. We can also use the technology to have live quizzes in class and full class collaboration. These devices can also give students the ability to record their learning for future study, such as video recording a science experiment to watch again later or taking pictures of their artwork. It provides students with one place where they can store everything.  

They are not a replacement for how we currently learn but a tool to enhance the way we learn. 

For more reading on this subject please click here to to view a publication by Cambridge Assesment on Screen time for learners: Making sense of the evidence and applying it in the classroom .

What Artificial Intelligence is being used? Will it gather data about my child? Will it be stored and how will it be used?

The AI platform we are using is called Century Tech. Before using any software the College performs Risk Assessment and Data Information Protection Assessment which allows us to confirm what data is used, collected, stored and where. If you would like more information on this, please contact our Data Protection Officer, [email protected]

What happens if my child's device runs out of battery during a lesson?

The IT Department will have a limited number of portable battery packs available for use during lessons. 

How can I be sure my child will be safe online?

Whilst in College students are encouraged to use the College WiFi which is filtered and monitored. iPads which are WiFi only can only access the internet via our filtered network. 

Outside of College iOS devices come with built in web filtering you can turn on. These restrictions remain in place regardless of their internet connection including 4G. For more information please click here.

Can I stop my child from using specific apps?

With Apple's powerful Parental Controls settings you are able to block any apps you deem inappropriate. You can also limit the amount of time your daughter can spend on any particular app. For more information on setting this up, please click here. 

Devices linked to the College MDM (Mobile Device Management System) may have apps blocked if there becomes a problem within the College. However, as a college we will be taking the approach of teaching students to use devices responsibly and how to be a good Digital Citizen, for more information please click here. 

How can I manage my child’s screen time at home?

At College we will be teaching students to use their devices responsibly and with discernment which as parents you can continue at home. Using Apple's built-in feature called Screen Time you can track your child’s usage and, if needed, limit access to the device completely or just specific apps. For more information click here.

If my child has an iPad will my child still need a phone?

There is no expectation for students to have a phone during the school day. As students have an iPad, phones will not be required in lessons and from a College perspective a phone is unnecessaryIt is entirely up to parents to decide if a student has a mobile phone. If a phone is brought to College we will encourage students store the device in their locker during the school day.

My child already has an iPad, can we purchase a digital crayon and keyboard case form the College?

Yes depending on the model. Please contact Mrs Le Hegarat ([email protected]) for more information. 

Limited IT skills, how will my child be brought up to speed?

In addition to Computer Science lessons, our students will have dynamic (responding to student needs) digital literacy lessons, devoted to developing the skills and knowledge enabling them to use technology to enhance thier learning.

My child already has an iPad can it be added to the school management system? 

Yes and to use her device effectively we would recommend it. Please contact Mrs Le Hegarat ([email protected]) for more information.  

My child already has a device, which is not an iPad, will they able to use this?

This all depends on the device, please contact Mrs Le Hegarat, at [email protected] for advice and information. 

Does my child need an apple-ID?

All students will be provided with an Apple ID linked to their school credentials. Please click here to view a parent guide on school Apple IDs. 

These Apple ID's are called Managed Apple IDs, these include 200GB of iCloud storage.

To maintain a focus on education, these services are disabled for Managed Apple IDs: 

  • App Store purchasing
  • iTunes Store purchasing
  • Book Store purchasing
  • HomeKit connected devices
  • Apple Pay
  • Find My
  • iCloud Mail
  • iCloud Keychain (although, keychain items are saved and restored on Shared iPad devices)
  • iCloud Family Sharing

Administrators can enable or disable the following services for Managed Apple IDs:

  • FaceTime
  • iMessage
  • Sharing photos and Pages, Numbers, and Keynote documents either within or outside your organization
  • Looking up other Managed Apple IDs within your organization
  • The ability to request a copy of the data associated with your Managed Apple ID

Who is responsible if the device it damaged or lost at school?

Students are responsible for caring for their device. We provide all students with a locker, a secure storage space for personal items. The College does not take responsibility for damage or loss of personal equipment.  If damage to or loss of the device is a concern, we recommend either adding the device to your House contents insurance or taking out the iCare Plan (comprehensive protection plan for Apple devices) 

For more information on iCare, please click here.

What will my child do with thier iPad when not required for a lesson?

When they do not require the device they should store it in thier padlocked locker.  

All students are provided with a locker, for which they will need to purchase a padlock. 

If all the iPads look the same, how will my child know it is theirs?

For iPads on the College's managed device platform, the iPad will show it's device name on the lock screen, in addition to being passcode protected.  If misplaced at College, the device can be located using Find My Device app by the IT department.
