Parent Communication

Predictable, respectful communication focused on the student's development.

Parents and guardians are kept updated on student progress through the SchoolAid app and email. Independent feedback calls are made once a term; concerns are addressed within 2–3 days and the outcome communicated to the parent. Communication is organised around defined channels rather than informal personal contacts.
