The school office is open to visitors from 8.20am until 4.00pm.

Reporting Absences:

Please use EduLink to report pupil absences.

For all other urgent enquiries, please call our main reception between 9.00am - 3.30pm. The receptionist will, if possible, put you through to the relevant person or log your call and pass it on. Calls may be recorded for quality and training purposes.

Correspondence:

We endeavour to respond to emails within three school working days from receipt. This is because the matter may need investigation or indeed, because colleagues are engaged in teaching/working with pupils. Any requests for meetings will be co-ordinated by the School. Unfortunately, owing to the need to co-ordinate diaries when colleagues are teaching, electronic meeting invites from parents cannot be accepted. Please use the usual contact routes to request a meeting. We appreciate your understanding and partnership.

Contact the right person:

For parents of secondary phase pupils, your main contact will be your child's Tutor and then Year Leaders for more serious or pastoral matters. For parents of primary phase pupils, your main contact will be your child's class teacher.

Headteacher: Mrs Dean
Senior Deputy: Mrs Edwards
Chair of Governors: Mrs Catchpole
Data Protection Officer: Mr Pay
Careers Enquiries: Mr Hurley
