Home School Agreement
Our Home-School agreement pledge ensures that pupils and their parents/carers are unambiguously clear about, and committed to, the School's rules and expectations. This contract guarantees a mutual understanding and promise which is vital to ensuring your child's success at the School. Please find below the relevant documents (NB: the hyper-linked sections will take you to the relevant parts of the School website where you can find further information).
Parent/Carer Agreement
I will:
- ensure that my son/daughter comes to school regularly and on time with the correct books, PE kit and the equipment required for each lesson.
- notify the School about any absences (by telephone) on the day of the absence and I will ensure that a note or medical documentation accompanies my son/daughter on his/her return to school. I understand that it is a legal requirement for my son/daughter to attend school every day.
- take a keen interest in my son/daughter’s life at the School.
- support all of the School’s policies, including those regarding behaviour, conduct and uniform.
- ensure that my son/daughter adopts and adheres to the School values: mutual respect; compassion; hard work; discipline; high expectations and aspirations.
- at all times, treat the School’s staff with respect and courtesy.
- support the rule that any referral to the IEU leads to an automatic detention on the same day or the day after.
- provide a supportive environment at home which encourages independent learning and consistent application to the completion of homework, additional reading and independent study (using resources on Google Classroom as well as other sources of information).
- ensure that my son/daughter does not bring banned items on to the School premises.
- check my child’s planner regularly, sign it to indicate homework completion and respond to notes from members of staff.
