The Learning Environment

I as a Parent/Carer will:

· Make sure that my child will arrive at school by 8.50 am.

· Ensure that my child attends school regularly and absences are properly notified.

· Make sure that my child is wearing named school uniform or other suitable clothing and that their PE kit is brought into school at the beginning of each week.

· Endeavour to provide a safe, secure and happy environment at home for my child,acknowledging that they learn at home.

A Healthy,Happy Community

I as a Parent/Carer will:

· Let the school know of any concerns or worries that may be affecting my child’s learning, behaviour or ability to do homework, as this can then be resolved quickly.

· Support the school by encouraging my child to develop a positive attitude towards our diverse, multi-cultural community.

· Attend meetings with my child’s teacher and other staff, aiming to be positive and productive, working towards moving my child on in their learning.

· Support and work with school to ensure that the behaviour management policies of the school are maintained, particularly with my child.

· Encourage a positive attitude towards my child’s education and our school. If I have anyconcerns, I will make an appointment and discuss them with the school as it is much healthier to work out solutions and move on.

· Read all information sent home as this gives me important details of relevant policies, meetings, workshops, activities, newsletters and open days.

· Support the school and PTA when fundraising and organising activities for the benefit of a variety of causes and also our school.

Homework

You as Parent/Carers will:

· Please support the school by making sure that homework tasks are completed and returned on time. A child who hasn’t completed their homework is often an unhappy, worried one!

· Please use your talents and experiences to enhance your child’s learning at home –Your child will benefit greatly from what you can show them, discuss with them and teach them.
