PARENT INVOLVEMENT

At ‘Believe’ we value parent input and appreciate your feedback and the reinforcement at home of the things we are teaching. Please note, however, that we do not encourage parents to stay during the One Day School hours. Our aim is to build independence in your child as we mediate with them.  Of course, we appreciate how anxious a child may feel on their first day. Our team of mediators are confident and able in helping each child through this.   At the end of every term, there will be a time where you are welcome to come and celebrate your child's achievements.

 

 

BEHAVIOURAL ISSUES

If a student is having behavioural issues which interfere with his / her or another student’s ability to learn, parents will be notified and this will be dealt with in consultation with the parent. The educator reserves the right to decline, suspend or terminate any student’s participation if behavioural problems persist.

Your personal information is confidential. We will only speak about your child to your school or any other person should we have your permission.

We look forward to working with your child and assisting them to be the best learner they can be.
