From time to time, parents and carers may have concerns about their son or daughter’s education and/or wellbeing at school. Quite often this is due to a misunderstanding about school policy or practice. Sometimes the pupil may be behaving unusually at home or at school and/or expressing their own concerns. Whatever the situation, we would encourage you, and/or your child, to talk to us about it at the earliest opportunity so that we can help sort out the problem.
If it is your child’s academic progress that you wish to speak to us about or if it is an issue around your child’s wellbeing (for example, bullying or other anxiety), please ask to see their teacher in the first instance or make an appointment, through the School Office, telephone number 01245 353755, via our Parent email Parent@ourladyimmaculate.essex.sch.uk or in person at Reception.
Our Lady Immaculate School emphasises the partnership between parents, church and school and the majority of concerns are be dealt with through informal contacts, usually with the class teacher and, sometimes, the Headteacher. Most concerns and complaints can be sorted out quickly by speaking with your child’s class teacher.
If, having spoken to the class teacher, you still have concerns, you should see the Headteacher who will look into the problem and discuss their findings with you so that we can find a way forward together which serves the best interest of both the school and your child.
