School Policies

​

Gretton School endeavours to deal swiftly, sympathetically and confidentially with any complaints, queries or concerns expressed about the safeguarding, welfare and treatment of any student.

​

In most cases, concerns can be resolved informally by discussion with the class staff or keyworker. Serious matters should be addressed to the Principal in writing.

​

All parents are provided with the complaints policy in the Welcome Pack, and a copy can be found below.

 

A full copy of the complaints policy is also available from the school office, all complaints are recorded and kept confidentially.

 

The following policies are available to download:
