There are a variety of people whom you can contact at the school. Don’t worry if you are not sure who can best deal with your questions – we will all do our best to help, and can re-direct your enquiry if need be.
We hope you won’t have any concerns, but if you do your child’s Pupil Support teacher is usually the best person to deal with them (names listed below- Depute Head Pupil Support is Mrs Elizabeth Clingan.
General enquiries will often best be answered by the Senior Manager responsible for your child’s year group (the Year Head). You may prefer to contact your child’s Pupil Support teacher or Depute Head Pupil Support about more personal matters, or if your child is experiencing problems. Class teachers will be happy to deal with most day to day enquiries about subject work, but since class teachers spend most of their time teaching we ask you not to contact them by phone.
You are welcome to write, telephone or arrange an appointment to discuss any matter. The School Office is open for phone calls between 8.00 a.m. and 4.30 p.m. Monday to Thursday and between 8.00 and 3.15 pm on Friday. In adverse weather every effort is made to deal with enquiries from 7.30 a.m., but we cannot guarantee this service. The Head Teacher also runs a monthly after school surgery if parents/ carers wish to speak to him about school matters out-with the school day (see website for details)
