We really would like to emphasise that we value very much the partnerships we have with parents. We do encourage you to come and see your child’s teacher if you have any concerns regarding your child. If you feel the discussion may be a lengthy one, we would encourage you to make an appointment so that staff can give you quality time and privacy. After school sessions are usually better for us, as you will appreciate that mornings are busy as children come into school to start their day! 

Anything that you can tell us helps us to understand your child better. It is important that you tell us of any worries they may have, particularly in their relationships with other children, no matter how small this may seem! 

If we know, then we can help. 

We believe that by involving parents in their child's education, children are happier at school and achieve more, and we actively welcome parents to join in a variety of activities. Many parents already help in the classrooms and around school and we are very grateful for their contribution.

Please ring or email the school if there is a problem or a question you wish to ask regarding your child.

The phone number is: 01977 682359 or email admin@sm.starmat.uk

Communication

Our weekly newsletter (emailed on Fridays) contains a detailed record of school news and events. The newsletter is also posted on our school website.

Paper copies are available from the front entrance.

We operate a system of contacting parents/carers by text message to inform them of last minute changes to arrangements.. It is very important, therefore, that we hold your current mobile telephone number on our records and that you inform us immediately if the number changes.
