Welcome to our policies page! All of our policies will be reviewed over a (minimum) three-year period and, once ratified by Governors, they will appear here. If you would like a copy of a policy not listed here please contact the School Office. The policies in bold have been agreed through a period of consultation between pupils, parents, staff and Governors. The highlighted text at the side of each policy gives an indication of when it will next be reviewed with red due to be renewed very soon, amber in the near future and green are not due for review. Many policies are reviewed with staff over the summer term ready for new guidance each September, especially in safeguarding. This means that we can start the term with fully compliant systems and processes.
