To raise any concerns

For effective resolution of parent concerns, it is important to speak initially to the teacher who has the responsibility and knowledge of the area of concern.

Parents:

If you have a concern, please follow these steps:

1. First Step: Contact the class teacher. You can make an appointment using the SeeSaw platform or by email.

2. Next Step: If the issue remains unresolved, approach the Assistant Principal or Deputy Principal.

3. Final Step: If the matter is still unresolved, you may approach the Principal.

If your concern or issue involves a school policy or procedure, please approach the teacher coordinating that area first. 

If you are still dissatisfied with the outcome at any stage, you must follow the Department of Education's Complaints Handling Policy, which can be obtained from the Principal or on the Department of Education website.
