Parent/School Communication

For most communication the school office will be parents’ first port of call. You can email the admin team on admin.GilbertColvin@redbridge.gov.uk or telephone directly. For anything class related, you can contact your teacher by sending an email to the office. If your query is about day-to-day arrangements including absence, changes to pick up arrangements, please let the office know. 

If you have a concern and have already raised it with the class teacher, the phase leader should be contacted via the office. If a concern is escalated, one of the core leadership team will speak with parents. 

Our Complaints Policy provides parents with clear guidance on how to raise a concern and outlines the steps involved in the process. However, the school is committed to addressing and resolving any issues before they escalate to a formal complaint. 

As always, we ask that parents speak to all of our staff politely and respectfully, and of course, you should expect exactly the same from us!
