Our Response

In response to this feedback, we plan to:

• Share clearer guidance on homework through the website and newsletters

• Re establish existing informal parent drop-in sessions so that any questions parents may have regarding health and safety procedures can be addressed more readily by the pastoral and community team.

• A reminder to all that it is parental responsibility to ensure that their devices are set up correctly so that regular information can be shared from the school.  We have a team of staff who have and do continue to support parents where they may struggle with links to newsletters and dojo pages. PLEASE speak to the office that relates to you.

• Review end-of-day communication procedures with staff to include reminding children to independently zip up coats when it may be wet or cold.
