Policies

Policies address the practical implications of how to achieve the school’s vision as expressed in it’s strategic plan and are a key means of ensuring that agreed values underpin day-to-day decisions and actions in school.

They are concerned with key processes within school and are about interactions between school, pupils, parents and community. They are about ensuring highly effective teaching and learning, about safety and about basic human rights. All policies are intended to guide the work of the headteacher and the staff and to provide a framework for the smooth functioning of the school based in a shared understanding of the school’s strategic plan and vision.

We have 2 categories of policy

• Statutory – covering major strategic areas required by law
• Discretionary – additional policies covering additional areas

It is important that all staff, governors and parents have easy access to school policies therefore paper copies are available, free of charge,  from the School office on request.

Below are the policies that may be of interest to parents or the wider community. Please feel free to contact the school office if you require any other information.
