WELFARE OF CHILDREN
Children are not to leave the school grounds at any time during the day without permission. If you need to take your child from school during school hours you must report to the office. You need to sign your child out in the register at the office and you will then be given a purple slip which needs to be handed to the classroom teacher before you take your child/ren.
Parents / caregivers of children who are going to be late or absent should notify the office before 9.00am. This can be done personally, via a note, a phone call or email.
We ask parents to ensure their children are at school on time and able to start classes at 9.00am. Any pupils not at school at this time are recorded on our electronic attendance register as absent and you will be phoned to ascertain your child's whereabouts and welfare by 9.15am.
Your child's safety is our prime concern. We therefore strongly promote positive behaviour in our school. This means that no one person has the right to abuse any other person. No one person has the right to intimidate any other person in any way. It also means that it is "okay to tell" if you are being bullied.
Assemblies, newsletters, class lessons and parent meetings will reinforce this message. The school has a Behaviour Management Policy, which is regularly reviewed. The Board of Trustees deals with serious cases of discipline as warranted.
