The school values close links with parents. We like to feel that parents are always welcome at school – as classroom helpers, listening to readers, working in the library, but also as partners in the education of their children. Should you wish to be more closely involved with the school, please contact the school office, to arrange a police check.

We try to ensure good communication between parents and school. This begins when children start school in the Reception Class, through our home visits. You are welcome in school at any time, but, should you need to speak to your child’s teacher, it is usually advisable to make an appointment, as it is not possible for teaching staff to leave their classes during lesson time. Parents are invited in to special assemblies or celebrations that might be held during the year and are especially welcome at our end of term communion services.

We aim to keep parents fully informed about the school and about pupils’ progress. There are two formal “Open Evenings” during the school year when parents are invited to discuss their children’s work, their progress and their records of achievement. Half termly progress reports based on effort and behaviour are sent home as well as the annual Pupil Progress report in July.

Please do read the newsletters which are sent home with your child as they will keep you informed of events happening in school. If you feel able to help us in school in some way, either by working with children, preparing materials or becoming involved in the life of the school please let us know.
