Our school has a number of policies, aimed at providing the best possible care for anyone who visits or attends our school. If you would like a paper copy (or any other format) of any of our documents on our website please speak to the school office, who will provide them to you free of charge. If you require further information about any of the items shown in this section, please contact the school and we will do our best to help.
If you wish to discuss any of these policies please arrange a suitable time to meet with the head teacher. We will notify you via the weekly school newsletter when any of the policies are updated.
