This section of the website contains general information for parents with links to various documents and sections of the website that you may find particularly useful:
Parents can book an appointment with the Headteacher on a one-to-one basis to discuss their child’s education and experience of school. Whatever the reason, a surgery slot will give you time to talk effectively about issues that are important to you.
Headteacher’s surgeries will take place on the last Friday of every month. Parents and carers can attend at any time between 9.00am and 11.00am and 3.30pm to 5.00pm. If you would like to arrange a meeting, please contact Ms K Murphy to book a slot, by emailing [email protected].
