Family Contact
Our aim at Grateley House School is to work in partnership with parents and siblings to create an environment where families feel supported.
We understand that families may be anxious when their child starts at a new school. All parents and carers
have access to members of staff that are involved in the education and care of their child, including our therapy team. We welcome questions and are happy to provide advice to help parents support their children. Residential staff also provide a weekly Home Link report to parents and carers.
The therapy and care teams are an important link for families and are available to offer practical support to
parents in transferring strategies from school to home and management of challenging behaviour in the home environment. Individual appointments can be made with members of the therapy team to discuss individual needs.
Two-way support
We operate an open door policy for parents who are welcome to arrange visits with the school at any time.
Telephone can be a crucial link, as well as email communication and/or TEAMS.
We have a firm commitment to two-way support and openness of attitude where partnership with parents is concerned, and we involve families in care, target-setting and individual programme content, to achieve a greater degree of consistency.
