School Policy Documents

Attention: open in a new window.

School policy documents are important because they help us communicate to every member of the school community exactly what our expectations, roles and responsibilities are in certain aspects of school life. Through making these documents available, the school staff, leadership team and governors aim to be open with all other members of the community that makes up the school.
