How the School will Contact Families
The weekly newsletter is the main form of communication – it includes a round up of all the activities across the academy and also key information about upcoming events.
It can be translated into multiple languages by pressing the orange ‘Translate Language’ button.
Class Charts is the main method of communication between school and home for tracking behaviour. All scholars have been sent home with a login code. Please ensure that you can login to access this key information. Contact the school using any of the above methods if you do not have the code.
Emails will be sent to the email address you have supplied. This is our preferred method of communication.
Text Messages will be sent from the number above (it will be different for attendance messages).
Any urgent matters will be communicated by a phone call – if we cannot get hold of you, after 3 attempts we will leave a voice message or send a text message.
School reports are sent 3 times per year to include a scholars latest academic results and/or latest attitude to learning grade.
Tutor Scholar Review Evenings are held in September. This is an opportunity for parents to come into school to meet with their childs form tutor to review progress, attendance and attitudes to learning.
Each year group has a dedicated Scholar Review Evening (Y11 have two evenings), which is where parents can meet with subject teachers for a allocated time. These are held using school cloud (online meetings) to ensure that as many parents can attend as possible.
