made, the prospective Pupil will not enjoy the benefit of a secured place on the waiting list for enrolment at the College. Once a prospective pupil physically takes up a place the Registration Fee becomes non-refundable.

Should the College elect for any reason to terminate this contract, then it may do so, on giving the parents\guardian written notice of its decision to terminate the contract at the end of the quarter or sooner, (whichever the case may be) as a result of a violation by the learner, of the Learner’s Code of Conduct.

10. Parents/guardians should make special note of additional costs as set out on page 4, in particular, the cost of an Apple device for learning as Parklands College runs a

standardised Apple One2One Programme, which means that every learner must have an Apple device for learning. 11. The parents/guardians give their consent for their Pupil's name, photo, and/or work to be reproduced in newsletters, newspapers and Internet sites and other such publicity
