Communication

We are always happy to answer any questions that parents and guardians have, big or small. Parents and guardians can call Reception on 020 8266 2300, who will direct them to the relevant member of staff. The School Nurse can also be contacted through Reception. If you or your child have any pastoral or academic concerns, please contact your child’s Tutor in the first instance.

Your child will be given an email account which teachers can email them on. They will receive login details and further information once they start at Habs. They will also have a Microsoft Teams account.

Letters

We upload parent information letters to Firefly every Friday.

Emails

We encourage an open dialogue but please note that Tutors and other members of the pastoral team are teachers and so unable to respond immediately to emails. In an emergency, please contact Reception who will direct your query to someone who can respond more quickly.

Reporting

There is a parents’ evening in the Autumn Term so that parents and guardians will have the opportunity to meet your child’s teachers and discuss their progress. Your child will receive a written report of your child’s progress in the Summer Term. If you have any concerns during the school year, you must not hesitate to contact your child’s Tutor. Students are given three additional progress grades. You can access these via Firefly. These grades allow Form Tutors to track your child’s progress.

Homework

If you have concerns about the time your child is spending on homework (either too little or too much), please get in touch with your child’s Tutor. We do not want them to spend all evening working, as it is important, they should have time to relax.
