Parent Communication


There are various different ways that we can communicate.

 

 

MCAS - used for us to communicate with you about trips and other information e.g. Friday Flyer etc.  For you to make online payments for trips, clubs and uniform. Do not use MCAS to email the school or report absences please. Click here for the MCAS parent guide

Informal communication (questions/queries) - with the teacher, in person - at the end of the day.  SLT on the school gate - before and after school. 

Communication which requires more than a few minutes with the teacher - please request to make an appointment for a call or meeting through the school office. (officeadmin@pelham.merton.sch.uk).  

Email communication for the teacher - this must come through the school office for the attention of the member of staff.  Please put your child's name and class in the subject line and who the email is intended for.  Teachers will respond to a non-urgent email within 5 working days. (officeadmin@pelham.merton.sch.uk).  

Reporting Absences - All absences must be reported by email to absences@pelham.merton.sch.uk before 9am, clearly stating the pupil’s name, surname and class name.  If an absence is due to illness, please include all symptoms. If symptoms include vomiting and/or diarrhoea, pupils must observe the NHS 48 hour rule.  If an absence is due to an appointment, please attach suitable evidence for us to file e.g. medical appointment letter/email/SMS reminder, school visit/entrance exam, visa or passport appointment etc.

Holiday Leave Request Forms and any other exceptional leave request should also be emailed to absences@pelham.merton.sch.uk.

Google Classroom - this is used for homework and informal reminders of class specific events etc.  This is not a medium for parents to communicate with the teacher as teaching staff will not have sufficient capacity to be checking this regularly enough for this to be efficient.
