Paper copies of all our policies are available on request, for free, from our school office.
School policies cover every aspect of school life. In this section, we have tried to capture other documents that may be useful, or that explain in a transparent and accountable way how we operate in the academy. Some of them appear in specific parts of the website related to the area in which they apply (for example, see the ‘Admissions’ tab for our Admissions Policy.)
Some of these documents are statutory, some we put on because we think they are useful to our stakeholders. Below are some of our most important policies for your information.
Please feel free to contact the school if you require any information concerning school policies and procedures.
