Home School Agreement

Our aim is to work constantly to provide excellence for every pupil. With a highly-trained, specialised team, we will support each pupil’s individual needs, particularly focusing on those pupils with neurodivergence.  We will provide a safe, but aspirational, environment to recapture an often lost passion for learning and creativity. We will be pioneering in our approach to whole-school emotional intelligence coaching and support, working closely in tune with the Local Authority, yourselves and other relevant agencies. Our aim is to offer a holistic and individualised education for each of our pupils.   

Purpose 

All schools and academies have a Home-School Agreement. The purpose of this agreement is to set out, in broad terms how pupils, parents / carers and the academy should work together to ensure that every pupil has the opportunities to achieve the highest levels of attainment possible. Academy pupils and parents / carers are all asked to sign this document to demonstrate that they endorse the general principles that are set out within it and to show how we all work together for the educational benefit of your child.
