Working Together

 

Home/school contract

Parents are asked to read and sign our home/school contract prior to their child starting school.

Pupil voice

Each class has a pupil representative on our School Council and Eco team. They meet half-termly to discuss all aspects of school life e.g. playground equipment, snack food, animal care, recycling. We encourage opinions, group decision making and action! Questionnaires are sometimes used to find out what children think about certain aspects of school life.

Parent Voice and Involvement

We actively encourage parents/carers to become more involved in their child’s education and parental views are sought and listened to in many ways.
