Family Learning

At our school, we believe that when families, young people and staff work together, everyone benefits. Families play a vital role in learning and we are committed to building strong, positive partnerships that support every young person to succeed.
Our motto ‘Build Respect and Earn Success – Be Part of It!’ guides our approach. We want every family to feel welcome, involved and valued as part of our school community.

Our Commitment to Families
We aim to:
• Build strong relationships with families and the community
• Encourage learning at home through shared activities
• Offer support, advice and opportunities to get involved
• Listen to families and shape our programmes based on your needs and ideas
Families are our young people’s first and most important educators, and together we create a supportive environment where they can thrive.

What We’re Working On
• Hosting family events and workshops across departments
• Running our annual Community Family Fun Day
• Creating an interactive guide to help families support learning at home
• Gathering feedback to continue improving and adapting our programmes
We’re always looking to grow and strengthen our Family Learning offer and if you would like to help, support or provide feedback, you can do this by contacting us here:
