Communication with Parents

We maintain a warm and welcoming environment and encourage informal contact with parents at the beginning and end of the day. Any request by a parent for private consultation with a class teacher or senior leader will be facilitated at the earliest convenient time.

There are also several times in a year when parents are invited in to talk to the teachers and see their child's work. For example:

• Parents are invited to their child's class Collective Worship each year.
• Parents have the opportunity to 'Meet the Teacher' at our September open evening, giving parents a chance to meet the new class teacher and find out about the year ahead and to discuss their child academically or socially.
• Parents have a consultation about progress in November, February and July.
• Parents have a written Annual Report just before the Easter holidays

Our other ways of communicating with parents are:

• The school website.
• A fortnightly information update.
• A year group curriculum newsletter each half-term.
• Individual letters to parents when class visits are arranged.
• Direct telephone calls.
• E-mail communication from the school. Email communication to the school: adminoffce@brockenhurst-primary.hants.sch.co.uk
• Home visits as part of the induction process for early years pupils.
• Curriculum based meetings and information leaflets provided to help your child at home.
• School Governors update.
• PTA updates.

We are always happy to provide a paper copy of any of the information on our website.  Please request from the school office.
