A school's policies are approved by the Local Governing Body, and cover every aspect of school life. They are reviewed regularly by our staff, leadership teams and governors, and updated to reflect changes in procedures or government guidance.

Below are some of our most important policies for your reference.  If you would like information on any aspect of school not listed here, please contact the school office who will be happy to help.

If you would like a paper copy of any of the policies, or if you have any questions or queries regarding any policy, please contact the School Office and we will be more than happy to talk any aspect of any policy through.

We are currently transitioning from the Local Authority to the White Hills Park Trust, and all policies are in the process of being reviewed and updated considering our new academy status.  All policies will be reviewed by our Local Governing Body, and so please understand some may still refer to the school as a LA school rather than an academy.

As a member of The White Hills Park Trust, some policies we adopt are trust-wide and apply to all their academies. You can see these policies on the Trust’s website.
