Advice to Parents
Parents are the first and most important educators of their children. The Academy sets out to provide a framework of experience and inspiration for its students to support parents' wish to give their children the best possible preparation for life.
At Havelock Academy we believe that parents, in choosing the school for their children, are committing themselves to a partnership where they can expect certain things of the Academy and the Academy, in a spirit of mutuality, can expect certain things of them.
Parents can expect the Academy to:
-
put children first
-
manage children's learning openly, clearly and creatively
-
express in its distinctive way the values of the "Every Child Matters" initiative
-
respond promptly to expressions of concern or complaints.
The Academy can expect parents to:
-
support their children's need to learn by creating the right environment at home for enquiry and discovery
-
enable their children to achieve full attendance
-
encourage their children to promote Academy values, such as care for each other and wearing the uniform correctly.
The Academy has a Complaints Policy, a copy of which can be obtained either by contacting the Academy office or by clicking on the Policies section of this website.
