Academic references 

Students leaving Chertsey High School at the end of Year 11 to go on to further or higher education will need a reference from the school. This is likely to be in the form of an electronic reference which will ask for your latest school record. The information contained here is:

  • Your name
  • Your attendance and punctuality record
  • The number of positive and negative incidents on your record
  • The total number of House Points you have earned

In addition, the following information is given per subject:

  • Your target grades (aspirational and school)
  • Your current grade
  • Your predicted grade
  • Your mock grade
  • Your attitude to learning (1-4)
  • Your homework record (1-4)

If this format is not used, we will provide a standardised reference which can be viewed here:

For references related to employment, students must contact the school in writing to the Headteacher c/o the School Office or by email to info@chertseyhighschool.co.uk requesting permission to provide a reference. This must include the name of the employer and details of the post applied for. Please note that we will not release a reference to a prospective employer without this.
