School Handbook & Policies
Thank you for visiting our page of School Policies.
We are involving children, parents, staff and the wider school community to evaluate and update our policies and practices.
Please do respond to surveys, questionnaires and/or feedback sheets so that your contributions can be valued and included.
We will post more policies here, as and when they are updated.
Many thanks for your continued support.
