Child protection and safeguarding
Every staff member is trained to recognise and report concerns about a child. Concerns are recorded, reviewed by the principal, and acted on — including involving the authorities where the law requires it.

Policies
The rules we hold ourselves to
Summaries are below. The full documents are available from the school office on request, in English and in the regional language.
Code of conduct
How children, staff and parents are expected to treat one another. No shouting, no physical punishment, no humiliation — and a clear route to complain if you see any of it.
Attendance
Please inform the class teacher by message if your child will be absent, and send a written note on return. Extended absence for family reasons should be discussed with the principal in advance.
Anti-bullying
Bullying is named, recorded and followed up with both families. Children are told exactly who to speak to, and they are never told to “sort it out between yourselves”.

Parent FAQ
Questions we get every term
Who do I speak to about my child?
Start with the class teacher — they know your child best. If the matter is not resolved, or it concerns a teacher, ask the school office for an appointment with the principal. You will not be asked to explain yourself twice.
How do I report an absence?
Message the class teacher before the first bell, and send a written note on the day your child returns. For absences longer than three days, please request the leave of absence form.
What if my child is unwell during the day?
The sick room is staffed and a first-aid trained staff member stays with your child. We call you before treating anything beyond a basic first-aid matter, and we never send a young child home unaccompanied.
Can I get lunch and snack guidance?
Yes. The school office keeps a simple one-page note on what to pack, and what we ask families not to send for allergy reasons. Ask us for a copy if you have not received it.
How is my child's data used?
Only for teaching, safety and school communication. We do not sell data or share it for advertising. Read the privacy policy for the full explanation, or ask the office in person.
