Parent Code of Conduct

At Calton Primary School we are very proud of our school community.  At our school, the staff, governors, parents and carers all recognise that the education of our children is a partnership between us.
 
We expect our school community to respect our school ethos and set a good example of their own behaviour both on school premises and when accompanying classes on school visits.   
 
In addition, we expect our parents, carers and visitors to keep our children safe by adhering to the school's requests to park safely outside the school gates during the morning and afternoon collections.
 
As a partnership we are all aware of the importance of good working relationships and all the recognise the importance of these relationships to equip our children with the necessary skills for their education.  For these reasons we will continue to welcome and encourage parents and carers to participate fully in the life of the school.
 
The purpose of this Code of Conduct is to provide the expectations around the conduct of all parents, carers and visitors connected to the school.
 
We are committed to resolving difficulties in a constructive manner, through an open and positive dialogue.  However, we understand that misunderstandings can cause frustrations and have a negative impact on our relationships.  Where issues arise or misconceptions take place, please contact your child's class teacher, Middle Leader or the Assistant Head of the phase, who will be available to meet with you and go through the issue and hopefully resolve it.  Where issues are unresolved, please follow the school complaints procedure, which is available on the school website.
 
The code aims to clarify the types of behaviour that will not be tolerated.
