Communications with School

We want to provide the best possible education for your children. We can do this most effectively when the school and home work together.

We would like you to let us know if there is anything happening for your child at home that may impact on their learning at school. In the same way we will endeavour to keep you informed if there is anything happening at school that may have an impact on your child. Please be reasonable in your timing of calls and expectations for responses. A teacher may not be available at interval or lunch and at a meeting after school and unable to get back to you until the next day. Remember that class times must be protected from interruptions.

There may be times when you want to discuss something with us. Please contact classroom teachers in the first instance if the issue is related to the classroom. If it is a wider issue, contact one of the Deputy Principals Mr Eames or Mr Tilley. We like to hear about any problems so we can work with you to overcome them. Equally we would like to hear if you think we have done something well, or to share any ideas you might have.

Please do not ring teachers at home except in an emergency. Teachers work long hours at school and we need to respect their private family time.

If calling in to the school to meet a teacher, please sign in at the school office first. There are times when in spite of all our best efforts we may not get things quite right. In those circumstances the school has a clear complaints process, this can be found on our website ~ Operating Guideline (OG 3.5).
