We aim to give all children the opportunity to develop skills, independence and confidence and to meet each child’s needs however special those needs might be.

The school will try to:

• Care for your child’s happiness and safety
• Ensure that your child achieves his or her best, as a valued member of the school community
• Provide a well-prepared and balanced curriculum and meet the individual needs of your child
• Achieve high standards of work and behaviour through building good relationships and developing a sense of responsibility
• Keep you informed about general school matters and your child’s progress in particular
• Be open and welcoming at all times and offer opportunities for you to become involved in the daily running of the school
• Let you know about any concerns or problems that affect your child’s work or behaviour

Parents/Guardians

We/I shall try to:

• Make sure the school has an up-to-date telephone number where I/we can be contacted in an emergency
• See that my/our child goes to school regularly an on time. (Your child should arrive not before 8:30 and not after 8:40. The school rings the bell at 8:40, when the doors open. The register is taken at 8:50)
• Make the school aware of any concerns or problems that might affect my/our child/s work or behaviour
• Support my/our child in homework and other opportunities for home learning
• Support the school’s policies and guidelines for behaviour, including the anti-bullying policy, which are available on request.
• Attend parents’ evenings and discussions about my/our child’s progress
• Get to know about my/our child’s life at school
• Provide the school with information they will need to care for my/our child safely (e.g. medical information)
