Parent code of conduct

At St Gerard’s Catholic Primary and Nursery School we are very fortunate to have supportive and friendly parents and carers.   We expect parents and carers to show respect and concern for others by:              -

supporting the respectful ethos of our school by setting a good example in their own speech and behaviour towards all members of the school community. 

working together with teachers for the benefit of children. 

correcting own child’s behaviour, especially in public where it could otherwise lead to conflict, aggressive or unsafe  behaviour; 

Respecting the school environment, including keeping the school tidy by not littering.

Following the parking rules and doing the right thing when delivering and collecting children from school.

In order to support a peaceful and safe school environment, the school cannot tolerate: -

Disruptive behaviour which interferes with the operation of a classroom, an office area or any other part of the school grounds. 

Using loud and/or offensive language or displaying temper.            

Threatening harm or the use of physical aggression towards another adult or child. 

Damaging or destroying school property. 

Abusive or threatening emails, phone or social network messages; 

Smoking and consumption of alcohol or other drugs or accessing the school site whilst intoxicated.                       

Dogs are not allowed on the premises.

The above behaviour on school premises will be reported to the appropriate authorities and Governors may prohibit an offending adult from entering the school grounds to safeguard our school community.
