All parents want the very best for their children. What exactly is "the best" of course differs greatly from one parent to the next, but most parents want their children to be successful and happy – and to feel secure in all aspects of their lives.
During their school years, the home and school occupy the greatest part of a child's time – and carry the greatest influence on their development into adulthood. Obviously, the more harmony there is between home and school, the greater will be the chances of achievement and fulfillment.
At our school we acknowledge that at times, parents have concerns about their child's education. Issues or concerns that you as parents have regarding your child's education are most effectively dealt with if they are raised in the following ways:
- Any concerns regarding your child's school life should be directed in the first instance to either the Principal or Deputy Principal who are located in the Administration building at the front of the school
- Matters involving allegations of child abuse, inappropriate behaviour by staff towards a student or parent, violence against a student, drug related matters or any matter likely to lead to criminal charges or involving legal action should be referred directly to the Principal.
- Educational matters, general personal and welfare matters (such as concerns regarding student, parent or staff relationships and interactions or medical matters) should be raised directly with , Deputy Principal, who will then refer the matter to the most appropriate personnel.
- General school matters such as the timing of sports days or special events should be raised with the organising teacher or the school office.
