Enabling children to flourish and succeed

Home-School Agreement

Home School Agreement 2024-25

We work hard to be a caring school community underpinned by our Christian values, where children participate, excel and take pride in their achievements. 

Our Vision:

As a community, we are working together to ensure educational excellence underpinned by our Christian ethos and values, enabling all to live a rich and abundant life and to achieve their full potential. Each individual should leave us fully prepared for the next stage of their life. (Reflecting John 10:10)

Jesus said, ‘I have come to give life – life in all its fullness.’

Our Values:

FRIENDSHIP

I smile and say hello

TRUST

I care and have respect for everyone and everything

ENDURANCE

I work hard and challenge myself

HOPE

I have a positive attitude

WISDOM

I listen and I learn

By working in close partnership with parents and carers, we aim to provide a high-quality education for your child.

Parents/Carers will…

  • See that my child arrives at school on time and has the necessary equipment;
  • Let the school know about any concerns or problems that might affect my child’s work or behaviour;
  • Support the school’s policies and guidelines for behaviour;
  • Read with my child at home on at least three days per week;
  • Support my child with homework and other opportunities for home learning;
  • Attend parents’ evening and discussions about my child’s progress;
  • Endeavour not to take my child on holidays during term time;
  • Support the school in any school-based activity.

Snarestone School will…

    • Contact parents if there is a problem with attendance, punctuality or equipment;
    • Let parents know about any concerns or problems that may affect their child’s work or behaviour;
    • Towards the end of the summer term, provide parents with an annual written report on their child’s progress;
    • Hear your child read regularly, at least once per week and more often for younger children and where the need arises;
    • Ensure that homework is manageable and that it follows a regular pattern;
    • Arrange parents’ evenings during which your child’s progress will be discussed;
    • Keep parents informed about school activities and special events through regular communications and updates.

As a parent or carer of a child in our school, you agree that we will work together to achieve these aims.
