Below are the policies which include additional information specific to our school:
Uniform policy: please see the policy below.
Mobile policy:
Staff and visitors are not permitted to use mobile phones in the presence of children.
Due to our bus service, staff will be permitted to communicate via the school's bus Teams channel. This is to communicate between bus locations and school. Due to the nature of transporting staff and children to and from school and catchment, there will be times when mobiles will need to be used in the presence of children. Where this is the case, staff will announce that they are using their phone to contact school or find out information.
There are a small number of children who have a mobile phone in order to communicate with their parents outside of school hours. This agreement is made between parents and school by contacting the admin team. Phones are to remain in bags on the school bus (if used) and handed into the office at the start of the day. Phones are turned off. Phones are collected at the end of the day from the office and can be switched on when children exit the bus. Where possible, we encourage families to use 'brick phones'.
