Vaccinations: Students, parents and carers will receive advance information of any relevant vaccinations that are to take place during the school year. Once a date is agreed, these vaccinations will appear in the website's school calendar.

Illness:  Any student feeling ill during a school day should talk to their class teacher, they will then be assessed by first-aid-trained staff member. If the student needs to be sent home, the ASR will contact parents/carers. Students must not call home themselves to ask to be collected.

My Child At School, (MCAS):  This is an online portal for parents that enables you to view your child's performance at school in real-time via the web.

Contact Details: Please ensure the details we hold on file are up-to-date and accurate in respect of parent/carer address, emergency contacts, email address and all contact phone numbers. This is very important and will ensure ASR staff are able to contact you should the need arise and for teaching/pastoral staff to contact home with praise or to raise a concern.
