One of the great strengths of our school is gained through the support parents give. This happens in all sorts of ways throughout the year. A large number of parents are able to commit themselves to helping in a classroom on a regular basis and are most welcome.
We find that parents have many skills which can be used to benefit our pupils. In practice we find the majority of children appreciate Mums and Dads working in a nearby class. Obviously we expect common sense, a caring attitude and confidentiality and our parents respect the nature of their help under the guidance of the class teacher. The system does work well and parents, staff and most importantly, children, all gain hugely.
Should you wish to become a Parent Helper please contact the school office who will talk you through the necessary checks and safeguards.
Please let your child’s class teacher know if you could offer help in this way.
