Herschel Grammar School

herschel grammar school

Slough

Herschel is a selective, co-educational secondary school serving Slough and its surrounding areas. In our latest inspection the school was deemed outstanding in all categories by Ofsted. Herschel has a warm and vibrant atmosphere built on an ethos of mutual trust, high academic standards and a commitment to nurturing and developing every individual pupil. We provide the very best opportunities to ensure every child achieves their potential. ‘Pupils thrive in the school’s academic, yet very caring and secure environment’ (Ofsted) And our pupils don’t just achieve very good examination results. Their progress between Year 7 and Year 11 places the school in the top 11% of schools nationally. The school’s success is built on genuine collaboration and partnership between governors, staff, pupils and parents; a partnership which has great aspirations for every child. Teachers have high expectations and work very hard to provide challenge and support. As Ofsted said in their verbal feedback the teachers are ‘enthusiastic, passionate and inspirational’. Pupils themselves have positive attitudes to learning and work well together. They take responsibility for their own behaviour and have strong emotional intelligence and empathy. As a result our young people leave us as responsible, active citizens ready to contribute confidently to university, the workplace and their communities. There is a wealth of information on the website that I hope will help you to increase your understanding of the school and to serve as a first point of information.

A reference to a statute or statutory provision is a reference to such statute or provision as amended or re-enacted. A reference to a statute or statutory provision includes any subordinate legislation made under that statute or statutory provision, as amended or re-enacted. Any phrase introduced by the terms including, include, in particular or any similar expression shall be construed as illustrative and shall not limit the sense of the words preceding those terms. A reference to writing or written includes faxes and e-mails. 3. General Information These Conditions apply when MT: sells and delivers Hardware; sells and delivers Licences; sells and delivers Software; or provides repairs or any other services to the Customer. They will also apply to other business transactions unless MT agrees that alternative special conditions apply. These Conditions apply to the exclusion of any other conditions that may be proposed by a Customer or implied by law (insofar as such exclusion is lawful). Part II Specific Provisions for the Use of the Online Shop Customers purchasing Goods from the Site, must read all Parts of these Conditions, which apply to them in full. 4. Consumers The Goods and services provided by MT are designed only for sale to and use by businesses in the course of their business activities. MT does not knowingly sell to any person dealing as a consumer or supply anything for personal use. 5. Customer’s Status By placing an order on the Site, the Customer warrants that he or she is: legally capable of entering into binding contracts and, where the Customer is an individual, that he or she is at least 18 years old; and is dealing in a business capacity and purchasing Goods and/or services for the purpose of his business and not for personal use. Part III General Conditions for the Provision of Goods and Services 6. Formation of Contract Quotations provided by MT to the Customer are not binding on MT. The Customer’s order constitutes an offer to MT to buy the Goods or services. All orders are subject to acceptance by MT. The offer will be deemed accepted, and a Contract formed, when MT sends the Customer confirmation that the Goods have been dispatched (“Dispatch Confirmation”) or, in the absence of a Dispatch Confirmation, when the Goods are delivered. The Contract will only relate to those Goods whose dispatch is confirmed to the Customer by a Dispatch Confirmation or if no Dispatch Confirmation is sent, those Goods which are actually dispatched. MT is not obliged to supply any Goods which may have been part of the Customer’s order until the dispatch of such Goods has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation. Subject to Condition 17 below, an order for services will be deemed to have been accepted, and a Contract formed, when MT sends the Customer confirmation that the services ordered will be provided (“Service Confirmation”) or, in the absence of a Service Confirmation, when the services begin to be provided. Oral representations will only be binding upon MT if they are expressly confirmed in writing by MT to the Customer. 7. Price Unless MT expressly specifies prices to the Customer, MT’s current list of prices applicable at the time of the acknowledgement of order will apply. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all prices are exclusive of value added tax, postage, freight, insurance, forwarding fees, installation and commissioning, travelling expenses and subsistence, which will be added as appropriate. MT will charge overtime for work outside of their normal Business Hours at up to 150% of the hourly rate from time to time applicable during Business Hours. Subject to Condition 16 below, prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which MT has already sent the Customer a Dispatch Confirmation or a Service Confirmation as the case may be. The Site contains a large number of products and it is always possible that, despite MT’s efforts, some of the products listed may be incorrectly priced. MT will normally verify prices as part of dispatch procedures so that, where a product’s correct price is less than our stated price, MT will charge the lower amount when dispatching the product to you. If a product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, MT will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection. MT is under no obligation to provide any Goods or services to the Customer at an incorrect (lower) price, even after MT has sent a Dispatch Confirmation or a Service Confirmation in relation to those Goods or services if such incorrect price could reasonably have been expected to be recognised by the Customer as an error. 8. Delivery and Availability The Customer’s order for Goods will be fulfilled by the delivery date in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of the date the Customer made his order (where such an order leads to a Contract). The period for delivery or performance of the Contract will normally commence on MT’s acknowledgement of the order. However, if the Customer is required to do anything before MT can effect delivery, MT will, as soon as practicable, notify the Customer accordingly. The time within which MT must deliver any Goods will run from the date on which MT receives notice from the Customer that it has duly complied with such notification from MT. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, any periods mentioned in the acknowledgement of order for services and Software development are based on a preliminary estimate of the required workload and therefore are approximate only. Time of delivery and performance is not of the essence. If MT fails to meet any delivery or performance dates set out in the acknowledgement of order and is solely responsible for such failure, the Customer may terminate the Contract but only after MT has been given an opportunity to rectify the situation and subsequently fails to meet the revised set of delivery or performance dates provided by MT to the Customer in writing. Unless MT has been deliberately or grossly negligent, all further claims of the Customer on the basis of the delay in performance are excluded. If MT cannot deliver or perform its obligations under the Contract due to Force Majeure or a failure of the Customer to cooperate or any other act, default or omission of the Customer, then MT will be entitled to perform its obligations under the Contract once the issue has been resolved, provided the issue occurred while MT was still allowed to deliver or perform and MT shall have no liability whatsoever for any delay or its failure to perform its obligations. 9. Agreed Performance Unless specified otherwise in writing, the agreed performance in respect of any repairs provided by MT, at the Customer’s request will be to adjust the relevant unit(s) to MT’s applicable standard specifications for that unit. Where the relevant unit(s) cannot be repaired to MT’s applicable standard specification due to the Customer limiting the repairs required or the time and money to be invested MT may exceed the Customer’s request if MT considers, at its sole discretion, that such additional repairs are reasonable and will ensure the proper functionality of the unit in question. The agreed performance levels for MT’s maintenance and care services are as set out in Conditions 26 and 28 below; for all other services the agreed performance levels will be as set out in the acknowledgement of order. 10. Refunds Where the Customer returns Goods (at the Customer’s cost) because he or she claims that the Goods are defective, MT will examine the returned Goods and will notify the Customer of its findings within a reasonable period of time. If MT (in its sole discretion) deems that the Goods are defective, MT may at its option repair, replace or provide a refund in respect of such defective Goods. MT will process any repair, replacement or refund as soon as practicable and, in the case of any refund, within 30 days of the day MT confirmed to the Customer that the Customer was entitled to the same. Such refunds will be made in full, including a refund of any delivery charges for sending the item to the Customer. 11. Import Duty If the Customer orders Goods for delivery outside the UK, they may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied when the delivery reaches the specified destination. The Customer will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that MT has no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Customers should contact their local customs office for further information before placing an order. Customers must comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the country for which the Goods are destined. The Customer will indemnify and keep indemnified MT in respect of all costs, proceedings, losses and liabilities resulting from any breach by the Customer of any such laws. 12. Retention of Title to Property The Goods will be at the Customer’s risk from the time of delivery. Property in and title to all Goods will remain with MT until MT has received payment for the full price of all the Goods (and/or all other goods and/or services supplied by MT to the Customer under any other contract whatsoever).. The Customer may sell or use Goods in which title is retained during the course of their normal business, but may not give such Goods by way of pledge or pledge these Goods as security. Until the property in and title to the Goods passes to the Customer: the Customer shall keep the Goods properly stored, protected and insured and separate from all or any other goods whether belonging to MT, the Customer or any third party; MT shall be entitled at any time forthwith to revoke the Customer’s power to deal with the Goods; and such power shall automatically cease if an Insolvency Event shall occur in respect of the Customer; and the Customer shall not make any modification to the Goods, the Software or their packaging or alter, remove or tamper with any marks, numbers or other means of identification used on or in relation to the Goods. Upon termination of the Customer’s power to deal with the Goods, the Customer shall place the Goods at the disposal of MT and MT are hereby irrevocably authorised without the need for consent of any third party but using only such force as may be necessary, to enter upon any premises of the Customer or any third party for the purpose of removing the Goods. If third parties claim title to Goods with retained title, the Customer will inform MT without delay, will notify the person making the claim of MT’s title and will support MT in enforcing its rights, including taking all the necessary steps required to preserve MT’s rights, including commencing litigation at the Customer’s own expense. If the Customer breaches the Contract, e. g. by delaying payment, the Customer will be obliged to return the Goods with retained title if requested by MT, in return for which MT will not terminate the Contract. 13. Payment Where services, maintenance or care are provided on an ongoing basis, MT will invoice the Customer for these at the beginning of the billing period or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The Customer will pay MT’s invoices in full within 30 days from the date of the relevant invoice. Depending on the scope of an order, payments for such services, maintenance or care are due either upon placement of the order by the Customer or upon partial delivery of the same of between 40 to 50% of their respective order value. BACS or cheque are the only methods of payment accepted. Invoices for Seminars and Training Sessions will be issued at the beginning of the respective session and payment is due immediately and without deduction. 14. Delay of Payment Where a Customer fails to pay an invoice by the due date, MT will be entitled to charge the Customer interest on all monies outstanding from the due date until the actual date of payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate of 8% above the base rate of the Bank of England calculated on a daily basis. 15. Setting-Off and Refusal of Payment The Customer cannot exercise any right of set-off in respect of amounts owed to or by MT. 16. Change of Pricing by MT for Ongoing Maintenance or Care MT may increase its prices for maintenance and services by giving the Customer written notice 2 months prior to the end of the Minimum Term. The Customer has 4 weeks from the date of receipt of the written notice from MT to object to the change. Where the Customer so objects, the Customer will be entitled to give notice to MT to terminate the Contract as of the date of the proposed price increase. 17. Automatic Extension of Contract Where services, maintenance or care are performed on an ongoing basis the Contract will come into effect upon acceptance by MT of the first order from the Customer for Software maintenance. The Contract will initially run until the date specified at “Minimum Service Duration” as set out in the “MT Service Product List” or until the expiry date where an expiry date is stipulated in the Contract (“Minimum Term”). Subject to one of the Parties serving written notice of termination on the other at least three months prior to the expiry of the Minimum Term, the Contract will be extended automatically. In the case of Software Licences supplied without a time limit, the Contract will extend until December 31st of the current year. The subsequent extension periods will begin on January 1st and end on December 31st of the respective year. In the case of Software Licences supplied with limited validity (e.g. a licence for 1-year) the extension is based on the terms and conditions set out in the description of the respective licence (e.g. extension by one further year). Unless otherwise agreed in writing, any extension to a Contract will be on the basis of MT’s current price list as at the date of such extension. 18. Delivery Obligations and Shipping The conditions for EXW (ex works) (MT’s premises or such other place referred to in the relevant order) as set out in the Incoterms 2010 apply to delivery of any Goods. Claims for any transport damages and any replacement of damaged Goods, remain with the Customer who is responsible for adhering to the mode and period for the filing of any claims with carriers, shippers and insurers. 19. Scope of Warranty (Material Deficiencies and Deficiencies in Title) MT warrants that the Hardware is free from defects in workmanship and material as at the time of transfer of risk; and warrants that the Software does not contain any flaws which void or substantially reduce its value or suitability for the usual or contracted purpose. Where MT is not the author of the Software, MT does not warrant that such Software will run without interruptions or errors, nor that MT will be capable of resolving all Software errors, nor that the Customer will be capable of achieving all of the functions included in the Software in all of the combinations chosen by the Customer, nor that these will meet the Customer’s requirements. MT will only warrant the quality and/or durability of Goods if it has expressly agreed in writing with the Customer that it will do so. The warranty period is 1 year. Where MT is the author of the Software such Software is subject to MT’s standard warranty. 20. Obligation to Inspect and Serve Notice of Defects The Customer must inspect the Goods upon delivery or repair and must notify MT in writing of any failure by MT to meet the specification within 7 days of delivery or repair or (where the failure was not apparent on reasonable inspection) within a reasonable time being no more than 1 month after discovery of the failure. Where the Customer fails to provide such notice MT will have no liability under its warranty. 21. Liability Subject only to Condition 21 d), MT shall not be liable to the Customer in contract, tort (including without limitation negligence) and/or breach of statutory duty for any loss or damage which the Customer may suffer by reason of any act, omission, neglect or default (including negligence) in the performance of the Contract by MT, its servants or agents, in a sum which is greater than GBP 200,000 per incident or series of connected incidents. Subject only to Condition 21 d), MT shall not be liable to the Customer whether in contract or tort (including without limitation negligence and/or breach of statutory duty) for indirect loss of any kind resulting from these Conditions, its performance or any breach of its terms. Subject only to Condition 21 d), MT shall not be liable to the Customer whether in contract or tort (including without limitation negligence and/or breach of statutory duty) for indirect economic loss of any kind including (but without limitation) loss of business opportunity, reputation, goodwill resulting from these Conditions, its performance or any breach of its conditions. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, nothing in these Conditions shall operate so as to limit or exclude MT’s non-excludable liability in respect of death or personal injury caused by the negligence of MT to exclude the application of Section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and to exclude liability for fraudulent misrepresentation. MT’s liability for loss of data is limited to the effort required to restore the data from proper backups provided by the Customer. 22. Third Party Rights If any third party claims or takes action against the Customer, because Goods delivered by MT, or their use in accordance with the instructions provided by MT, purportedly violate their commercial rights or proprietary rights, then the Customer will inform MT of the same. MT agrees that they will assist the Customer in defending such claims. Where the claim is made to the Customer within 12 months of the date of delivery, MT will indemnify the Customer against claims provided that the Customer: appoints MT to defend the claims or to settle the dispute, and promptly notifies MT of any such claim, keeps the Customer informed of all information received and provides such reasonable assistance to MT as it shall reasonably require, does not defend the action itself without coordinating such defence with MT, and does not at any time admit liability or otherwise settle or compromise or attempt to settle or compromise the said claim or action except upon the express instruction of MT, the alleged breach of rights is not based on alteration of the delivered item used by the Customer, and does not use the item delivered by MT in conjunction with other items and/or in a fashion that breaches any such rights, in a situation where the use of the item as delivered by MT would not have breached the rights of the person who has filed the claim. MT may at any time and at its own expense acquire on behalf of the Customer the right to continue to use the Goods, to replace the Goods or alter them in such a fashion that the rights of others are no longer breached. If this is not possible, the Customer shall return or destroy the Goods if required to do so by MT who will reimburse the purchasing price for the Goods less depreciation. If the Customer refuses to do so, MT will no longer defend the claim or provide the Customer with any further support. The Customer has no further rights in case of disputes over proprietary rights with third parties and MT shall have no liability therefore unless MT could be blamed for acting deliberately or with gross negligence. Part IV Special Conditions for Delivery of Software 23. Conditions of Use for Delivered Software In the case of delivery of Software to the Customer, MT hereby grants the Customer a simple, non exclusive and non-transferable, licence to use the Software (“Licence”) . The validity of the Licence is not time limited, unless otherwise specified to the contrary in the terms and conditions of the Licence. MT, grants the Customer the use of such Software in the form of the object code and the user documentation with the use being restricted to one electronic data processing system at any one time and only for the tasks for which it is intended. Unless permitted by law, the Customer will not decompile the Software or perform reverse engineering. The Customer may duplicate the Software but only to the extent that this is required for the permitted use, and in order to allow it to perform data backup. Upon delivery of any Software, including updates and upgrades, the Customer will immediately produce a backup copy. MT may terminate the Licence granted to the Customer pursuant to this Condition 23 with immediate effect if the Customer is in breach of the conditions for the use of the Software for a period of 30 days from the date of a written notice of such a breach from MT or any third party. On termination of this Contract howsoever arising, the Customer will return to MT within 30 days all Software together with any related materials owned and licensed by MT and shall delete all copies and partial copies of the Software however stored within 7 days of service of the notice.
