Approaching our School

Approaching the School

From time to time parents or other members of the school community may need to approach the school in order to:

  • Discuss the progress or welfare of their your own child.
  • Express concern about actions of other students.
  • Enquire about school policy or practice.

It is therefore necessary to have procedures that will help solve problems as soon as possible to maintain a safe and harmonious school environment is maintained.  The best results usually flow from working together.

These procedures aim to:

  • provide a guide in order that concerns are dealt with in an open and fair manner.
  • ensure that the rights of students, staff and parents are respected and upheld
  • support sensitivity and confidentiality.
  • help reach an agreed solution.

On occasion, concerns may cause frustration and anxiety.  At such time it is always important to organise a time to talk with school staff in a calm and confidential environment.

Please Note: No parent should directly approach another person's child.

The school will deal with issues between students as part of the school's Discipline and Welfare Policy.
