Parent Partnership
At our school, we recognise that parents and carers play a vital role in their child's education. A strong partnership between home and school helps children to feel supported, achieve their best and develop a love of learning. We value the contributions of our families and believe that working together creates the best possible outcomes for every child.
To strengthen these partnerships, every year group provides termly opportunities for parents and carers to come into school and engage in their child's learning. These may include watching a class performance or celebration, attending a workshop focused on an important aspect of learning or development, or taking part in activities alongside their child in the classroom. These experiences allow families to gain a deeper understanding of school life, celebrate achievements and share in their child's educational journey.
By fostering open communication and meaningful opportunities for involvement, we aim to build a supportive school community where children, families and staff work together to help every child thrive. In addition to this we also offer:
Parents' Evenings
Each year in the autumn and spring terms we give parents opportunities to discuss the progress of their child with the class teacher.
Towards the end of the summer term parents receive a comprehensive report explaining their child's progress and how they have developed through the year. We offer parents the opportunities to discuss these reports with the teacher if the parents feel there is a need.
Parent Helpers
School life is enriched by parental help. Parents can help in numerous ways: hearing children read, general help in the classroom, helping with specific activities like cooking, swimming, Forest School, supporting children on trips etc. If you are interested in becoming a parent helper, please contact the school office.
Informal Parent-Teacher Discussion
Parents do not have to wait until parents’ evening to discuss their child's progress. The teaching staff will contact the parents if they have concerns about any child in their class and parents who wish to discuss their child's progress may make an appointment with the relevant teacher.
Parent Teacher Association (PTA)
We have a very active PTA here at school. For more information click here.
