Parents

Reporting To Parents

Parents' evenings are held on two occasions during the academic year, usually in November and July, and this is an opportunity to discuss your child/children's progress with the teacher. An annual written report is presented to all parents in July.

If a child is failing to maintain satisfactory academic progress, parents will be contacted and invited to school to discuss the matter.

If your child has any problem whatsoever regarding his/her school life, it is advisable to contact the class teacher immediately, rather than wait for a parents' evening to discuss the problem. In a child's mind, minnor concerns can become greatly exaggerated and cause a great deal of distress.

Serious matters of concern should be referred to the Head teacher without delay.

A regular half-termly newsletter keeps parents informed of events at school.

Parental Involvement
Several parents are involved with various activities at school on a voluntary basis and teachers find their contribution invaluable. If any parents have a particular area of expertise, or would simply enjoy helping out at school, please contact the Head teacher. Your support would be greatly welcomed.

Parent Teacher Association
The school has a very dedicated P.T.A. The Association arranges numerous fund-raising activities throughout the year and raises a great deal of money for school funds. The money raised is used to purchase resources which enrich the curricular provision, thus improving the quality of education provided at the school.

In addition, the P.T.A. encourages close links between the staff, parents, local residents and others associated with the school.

New parents are always welcome and their support is much appreciated.
