Tutors should be well known to parents and will usually be the first point of contact, although the Senior Managers are equally available.

• All tutors have a declared ‘Surgery’ time when their availability to parents can be guaranteed, and will phone, email or arrange to meet with parents at any other mutually convenient times.
• Any significant pastoral concern which arises at School will be shared with parents and the school wishes to know as soon as possible of any concern arising at home, whether or not it relates directly to school life.
• As children grow, so we try to give them increased responsibility to resolve minor concerns under our guidance. In such circumstances, it is good if children are able to reach a happy resolution themselves and it may therefore be that we do not inform parents of the older children if they have had and resolved a minor worry. In general, though, parents should expect to be informed of any significant incident involving their child.
