When schools and parents/carers listen to each other and work in partnership, research has shown that this has a monumental impact on a child's attainment and their overall well-being. This is why it is so important that we at Tyndale, work in partnership with you, from your child's first days with us, right through to when they leave.

Therefore, from September 2023, and each year thereafter, it is a requirement that all parents/carers confirm that they will adhere to the home school agreement detailed below. 

As always, we appreciate your support and partnership to allow us to give your child the best chance of success. 

Please read the agreement below, before completing the form:
