A Working Partnership

We believe that families and carers are the first educators and, alongside the school, together we can help each child reach their potential. As such, it is important that we have a close relationship with our children and their families. When your child starts at Barton Hill Academy, there is always comprehensive meetings with a desiganated admissions leader. This enables your child to feel safe and secure in the knowledge that their new class teacher and all the adults who will be helping them understand their individual needs and talents.

If your child is starting in Nursery or Reception, we hold Parent Information sessions to introduce the staff and go through all the aspects of school life to help parents with the many questions they may have.

During the school day, families can contact the school in various ways. There are always members of the Academy Leadership Team on the playground before school and the class teachers are available at the end of school.

Three times a year parents have the opportunity to attend Parent/Teacher meeting to discuss their child’s Learning.
