Support for Families
We are aware that at times families need a little bit more support. There are a number of external organisations that can help. If you are ever in need or need support due to financial pressures please do let us know.
We do sometimes have food left over from lunch that can go home, rather than in the waste. If you feel this might help you please do let us know and we can add you to the list of those we are already supporting.
Discounted social broadband tariffs
Home broadband is increasingly essential for supporting learning. Households receiving benefits such as Universal Credit could be eligible for discounted social tariffs, helping them stay connected at lower costs.
The Department for Education is encouraging schools and councils to signpost these offers to eligible households.
