Communicating effectively with each other

Effective communication between the school, parents and the wider community is essential to building good, working relationships and ensuring the best for our children. It is important to us and helps build a community of trust and understanding that is at the heart of a good school. If you would like to share something with us, our staff are always pleased to make time to speak with you face to face.

To speak to a Teacher or the Headteacher please call the School Office to make an appointment. You can also speak directly to your child's Class Teacher after School every day to pass on a piece of information or book in a meeting. The Head and Deputy Headteacher will also be available for short conversations at the School Gate each morning, although the confidentiality of meetings in this setting cannot always be guaranteed. Please try to avoid approaching teachers at the start of the day if at all possible, as they will be busy and there won’t be the time to give you the attention that you require and we want to offer.

Parents are also able to communicate with memebers of staff via the Studybugs app and we will respond to messages as soon as we are able. 

We don’t use email for extended communications with parents or carers. If you do email us your concerns we will offer to meet with you face to face in order to respond to the issues you raise. We want all our communication with you to be clear, open and productive.

We will respond to any written communication from parents/carers within 10 days.
