Student & Parent Services
Cantell Student Services department are committed to ‘Achieving Excellence’ for all our students. We are proud to work in partnership with teaching staff so that Cantell students have the opportunity to achieve their full potential, enabling them to be highly educated, responsible and confident young people ready to face the challenges of their future.
Student Services would like to extend their services and assist, not only the students of Cantell but also our parents. In future our department will be called Student and Parent Services although our main emphasis will still be on the child. I have listed below some of the areas that we cover.
• School Transport
• Free School Meals
• Admissions
• Transition
• Lost Property
In our recent survey which was undertaken by Kirkland Rowland Marketing school communication has increased by 2.7% since 2009. Although, pleased to see an increase Student and Parent Services would again like to improve our level of communication and with this in mind, we do encourage parent’s views on how we can deliver a more effective level of communication. We would welcome any ideas or feedback from you.
Please note that The Student and Parents Services Team are available Mon- Thurs 8.00am- 4.30pm and Fri 8.30am to 3.30pm. However, if you wish to leave a message outside of our opening hours Cantell’s Main Reception will be more than happy to assist
Alternatively please e-mail. Claire.hill@cantellschool.lpplus.net or maria.rice@cantellschool.lpplus.net
| We look forward to helping improve our communication in the interest of child’s education. |
