We are keen to from positive and successful partnerships with parents and the wider local community. We therefore welcome parental and community involvement wherever possible and so if you would like to get in touch, please feel free to contact us in one of the following ways.
We would like to make it clear that our school and our Authority have a zero-tolerance approach to any form of verbal abuse towards our staff. All members of our community are entitled to work and interact in a safe, respectful, and supportive environment. While we understand that concerns and frustrations may arise, these must always be communicated calmly and respectfully. Any instances of verbal abuse will be taken seriously and addressed in line with Glasgow City Council policy. We thank families for their cooperation in upholding a culture of mutual respect.
We kindly remind parents and carers that, to ensure the safety of our pupils and to minimise disruption to learning and professional preparation time, teachers are not available for unscheduled conversations at the start of the morning or after the school day without a pre-arranged appointment and parents should not access classrooms without prior consent. If you wish to speak with your child’s teacher, we ask that you please contact the school office or the Department Lead. This allows staff to give your concerns the time and attention they deserve.
If you have any immediate questions or queries, members of the Senior Leadership Team are always happy to help and are usually at entrances at the start and end of the day or can be contacted via our office.
