Home School Agreement

At Emmbrook Infant School, we believe that a strong partnership between home and school is essential for every child to thrive. By working together, we can create a supportive and consistent environment where children feel safe, valued, and ready to learn.

Our Home School Agreement sets out the shared expectations between the school, parents and carers, and pupils. It reflects our commitment to providing high-quality education, promoting positive behaviour, and nurturing each child’s wellbeing and development.

We ask all members of our school community to work together in a spirit of trust, respect, and open communication. By doing so, we can ensure that every child has the best possible experience and is supported to achieve their full potential.

Together we will:

  • Tackle any special and individual needs
  • Encourage the children to keep the school’s rules
  • Support children’s learning to help them achieve their best
  • Adhere to the policies of the school

Demonstrate the Core Values at all times

Our School will:

  • Communicate promptly in the event of an emergency or other cause for concern
  • Teach and expect all children to follow the Golden Rules
  • Support all children in reaching their full potential whilst accessing a creative curriculum

I will try hard to:

  • Do my best learning at all times
