Arbor

We believe that strong communication with parents is essential to building effective partnerships. To support this, we use Arbor as our main school information system for communication and online payments. Arbor helps us keep important information safe, up to date, and easy to share with families. Parents can access the system using the link below.

An overview of the Parent App:

Who do I contact if I have a concern about my child?

If you have any concerns about your child, your child’s class teacher should usually be the first point of contact. We operate an open-door policy and are happy to speak with parents whenever possible. The best time for a quick conversation is usually at the end of the school day. If you would prefer to discuss something in more detail, you can let the class teacher know and arrange a longer, mutually convenient time to meet. If further support is needed, the class teacher can help direct you to other members of staff such as the SENDCO or Senior Leadership Team.

When are parents’ evenings?

We hold two Parents’ Evenings each year, usually in October and February. These meetings give parents and carers the opportunity to discuss their child’s progress, learning, and wellbeing with the class teacher. In addition, end-of-year reports are sent home during the summer term to provide a detailed overview of each child’s achievements and development across the year. Parents are always welcome to contact the school at other times if they would like to discuss their child’s progress.
