children.

• Understand the school’s rationale and intent, and

programmes.

• Understand that the school caters to many different

students with various needs, not one.

• Respect the professionalism of teachers.

2. Maintain close communication via different channels

(phone, email, School-Home Link, meetings). We

welcome suggestions for improvement.

3. Join the Parent Support Group.
