What you can expect when you need to communicate with the school in person?

Class teachers will be out on the playground at the beginning of the day from 8.40 and at the end of the day.

If you need to let teachers know anything about your child regarding the day ahead, please try to catch them before 8.45am.

At the end of the day, unless they have clubs or meetings, teachers can be more available to meet parents. Please always let them know straight away if you know it is a conversation best had in private.

Clearly if the school day has started, feel free to pass on information or concerns to the office / pastoral team and they can relay the information onto the class teacher or alternatively email your child’s class email directly.

The School’s Relationships Charter covers this in more detail.

Can I email the school directly?

Please direct all email communication first and foremost to the school office admin@minchschool.net or you can use the online form. The office will then forward emails to the appropriate member of staff or alternatively, you may wish to contact your child’s teacher directly concerning any academic/pastoral matters. Please note, many teachers are busy during the school day so any change to pick up arrangements must be sent to the office.
