INFORMATION FOR PARENTS

At Beacon Hill, parents, staff and partners work together to make sure that all of our pupils can achieve their potential.

 

Parents are welcome to visit at any time but it is always better to call first to make sure that the person you want to see is available. We run a parents forum group which gives parents a chance to share with each other and to invite guests to talk to the group. We also have yoga and relaxation sessions for parents.

 

We are looking forward to hosting more events in our new parents room and would welcome everyones ideas.

If you cannot find the information that you are looking for on here, please get in touch.
