Policies

Our school policies, together with Discovery Educational Trust policies (available from the 'Our Trust' menu option above), cover every aspect of school life. They address the practical implications of how we achieve our school vision and ensure that our agreed values underpin day-to-day decisions and actions in school and the Trust. They are concerned with key processes within school and are about the interactions between staff, pupils, parents/carers, Local Governors and our local community.  All policies are carefully considered and regularly reviewed by staff, Local Governors and Trustees before being adopted.

Below are some of our most important policies for your reference. Click on the links to read individual policies and, as usual, if there is anything you cannot find or you have any queries about, please contact the School Office and our staff will be happy to help. Paper copies of any of our policies are available, on request (free of charge), from the School Office.
