Professionals, Children and Families – ‘big issues’ consultation

Professionals, Children and Families – ‘big issues’ consultation (deadline 30th Sept)

The Council has launched a consultation to find out what are the local ‘big issues’ for children and families in Havering. It’s not just for parents - nieces, nephews, grandchildren etc who are children resident in the borough, or if you work with children in the Borough.

The views of local families, children, teenagers and professionals are essential to our planning, as without them we can't fully understand the local picture, so please take the time to complete the survey.

Parents, professionals and family members can access the survey here.

Children aged 11 and over can tell us what they think here

Shared e-mail system now live!

In our recent Parent Council meeting, you highlighted to us that it can sometimes be difficult to pass on messages to the teacher if you are a working parent. Many of you are not able to speak to me on the gate in the morning. Many of you are unable to come in the afternoon to see the class teacher. We have created a new email address for each Phase group, so that you can relay information to the teachers. We will trial it this term and see how successful it is at meeting your needs. All the teachers in the Phase will have access to the mailbox and check it daily, as well as myself, Mrs Nicholls, Mrs Hoffman and Mrs Taylor.
