BEING COLLEGE READY
COLLEGE EXPECTATIONS: 5PS OF PROFESSIONAL BEHAVIOUR
My professional behaviours
and attitudes
What are the 5Ps?
These are the qualities you will develop to become a
professional in your chosen subject.
• Positive – we encourage everybody at College to be
open-minded, willing to listen and celebrate diversity.
• Polite – we encourage everybody at College to speak
respectfully and appropriately to each other.
• Punctual – it is important that you arrive to class on
time and are ready to begin learning.
• Prepared – it is important to be equipped and ready for
lessons with a can-do attitude.
• Professional – we expect everybody to be professional
in dress language and behaviour, and demonstrate
the previous positive, polite, punctual and prepared
qualities.
The 5Ps will relate to every area and all aspects of your
journey with us at DCG, this will support you to become
work-ready.
