Concerns & Complaints

In almost all situations, concerns and complaints can be handled informally by speaking to a member of staff.  In the first instance please request a meeting with your child's class teacher at a mutually convenient time, as it is not always possible for a teacher to discuss a complaint at the beginning or end of the school day in front of other parents or carers and children.

*Please note that staff are only able to discuss a pupil with those with formal parental responsibility*

If the class teacher is unavailable, please ask for an appointment with the Phase Leaders who are as follows:

Wyvil Primary School - Mainstream Classes

EYFS : Lucinda Parnell

KS1 : Tamsin Gray

Lower Key Stage 2: Helen Ainsworth

Year 5 Leader: Isobel Casey

Year 6 Leader: Aidan Malley

Autism Resource Base Provision:

Phase Leader : Ashley Ward

Strategic Leader for Inclusion : Amy Tomkins

In the very rare instance where the Phase Leader is unable to help with your request or concern, then please request an appointment with Katie Pope (Assistant Headteacher, DSL and SENDCo), Stephanie Stevens (Deputy Headteacher) or the Headteacher, Lisa Hodgkinson at a mutually convenient time.

Should you wish to record a concern or make a complaint, please complete in full a Concern and Complaint Form that you can find in the appendices. 

In dealing with any complaints, the school will also refer to the Department for Education's Policy for Unreasonable Complainants. CLICK HERE to view this policy.
