Who do I contact if I have a concern about my child?

At Merrylands, we want all parents/carers to feel able to approach the staff and to ask questions or voice concerns.  Often, the situation or problem can be easily resolved and can prevent unnecessary worry.

In the first instance, please talk to the class teacher who is the member of staff that really knows your child and their friendship groups etc.  You can make an appointment or arrange a phone call via the admin email, or simply speak to them at the class door before or after school.

There are a number of other staff members who you can also make an appointment with to discuss more specific issues relating to health, resources available to the local community and SEND, for example.  

Of course, if you feel that the situation has not been resolved, the leadership team are available.  Please see the table below to know who these members of staff are.

Member of Staff:	Role:
Mr Tobin	Executive Headteacher
Mrs Pryer	Head of School and Deputy Safeguarding Lead
Mr Andrews	Deputy Headteacher and Safeguarding Lead
Mrs Cooper	Assistant Headteacher
Mrs Christie	Assistant Headteacher
Miss Williams	SENCo
Miss Challis	Office Manager
Mrs Major	Nursery Enquiries
Mrs Anthony	Early Years Lead

The School Office will need to be contacted to arrange an appointment with all staff.  However, if it is a matter of urgency, then a member of the leadership team will meet with you as soon as they are available.
