If you would like to speak to a member of staff about your child’s progress, behaviour or wellbeing, please free to contact their form tutor or regular learning support assistant in the first instance. You will have had the names of these classroom staff in the leaflet given out during transition. If you would like some more information about learning and subject content, you are welcome to contact your child’s subject teacher. You receive this information with your child’s timetable at the beginning of each academic year. Below are some other key staff at The Oaks and their areas of responsibility.
