My job also involves visiting you in your home, to help you in supporting your daughter, to get the most from the different educational opportunities that areavailable for your daughter.

I also link in with the different resourcesthat are available both inour school and in the local community.

Throughout the year, I organise various activities for parents from coffee mornings to workshops. I encourage all our parents/guardians to play an active role in your daughter’s educational journey and welcome you to become part of our school community.

You can contact me Monday-Friday (9am – 3pm) on 0896047639 regarding any concerns you may have. I am also available to meet parents in their homes or at school.
