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.
