Communication with Parents
Our main forms of communication with parents are via ClassDojo and School Jotter (school app). As a school, we work hard to try to make communication the best it can possibly be, whilst at the same time vastly reducing the number of letters that are sent out. Our weekly newsletter is our main form of communication.
School Jotter
We ask ALL parents to download the app so that you are kept up to date with everything that is happening in our school. This includes news items, newsletters, and our events calendar.
Our app also has links to other platforms we use in school (e.g. LunchShop, Showbie, ClassDojo, Times Tables Rock Stars, etc).
You do not need a login for the app.
For IOS users: To find the app in the App Store, simply search for School Jotter and download the app.
For android users: To find the app in the Google Play Store, simply search for School Jotter and download the app.
Please make sure that you regularly check the app. The app also has a feature which allows you to only receive notifications relevant to your child’s year group. Simply click on the menu button on the top left hand corner of the main app page and choose the settings option from the drop down menu. Click on the news button and choose which notifications you wish to receive. Please make sure you have 'School News' clicked as everyone needs this one.
ClassDojo
We use ClassDojo as a way of awarding house points, communicating directly with parents and sending out whole school and year group messages.
ClassDojo can be downloaded as an app or used via an internet browser.
You will need a login for the app. This will be supply via the School Office or Class Teacher. Please ring the School Office and have your email address to hand.
