Parenting Support

We are all experiencing challenging times, it is important that we strengthen our networks of family and friends to try to support each other. As a school, we will continue to support families by maintaining contact through the Class Dojo messaging system and where appropriate we will contact parents directly on a weekly basis.

If you have any concerns, whether about learning or welfare matters, you can:
– Send a Class Dojo message to the class teacher directly
– Email the school and your email will be directed to the appropriate member of school staff enquiries@poplarfarmsch-cit.co.uk
