Keeping Us Informed

It is important that we hold two separate sets of contact details in case of an emergency, so please ensure that we have a back-up contact other than the main parent or carer, e.g. grandparents or other relatives/family friends. 

Please note that due to safeguarding requirements, we are unable to let anyone collect your child unless we hold their details on your child's student record. 

Please include your mobile number and a working email address when completing the data collection form we submit to you at the beginning of each academic year. 

For any changes to your child's contact details, please email our Data Team with the details. 

Changes in Circumstances

It is important that you notify us of any change in family circumstances as soon as possible. This helps us to ensure the welfare of your child. Please let us also know if any of your details including contact details have changed since you filled in the original admissions form. 

If a change in family circumstances occurs and, in particular, who has legal responsibility for your child, then you MUST inform the College immediately.

We are not permitted to supply information to parents/carers if their details are not held on the student's record or relatives/family friends who do not have legal responsibility for the child.         

Our main form of communication

Text messaging will be used to contact parents/carers in an emergency relating to absence/discipline or to pass on information and reminders about progress evenings and events at the College.

Email will be used to contact you in most instances. For example, with information about college trips, communications regarding praise, awards, discipline and behaviour.

We use ClassCharts as our main platform to publish homework assignments and to contact students directly.
