Parents Information

Welcome to the Parents' Pages.

We’re really glad you’re here. At Stanchester, we believe that when school and home work closely together, students feel supported, confident, and ready to achieve their very best. These pages bring together everything you might need throughout the school year.

Your involvement makes a huge difference. Whether it’s checking in on homework, cheering at an event, or simply encouraging your child each day, we appreciate the important role you play. We’re here to work alongside you and make sure your child feels safe, supported, and encouraged as they grow through their secondary years.

We know how busy family life can be, so we aim to make communication clear and convenient. You’ll receive:

  • Regular newsletters with key dates and updates
  • Messages through our school app
  • Parents evenings to talk through progress
  • Access to our online portal for attendance, behaviour, and learning information

If you ever need anything, please reach out — we are always happy to help.

Secondary school is an exciting time, full of new challenges and opportunities. We work hard to provide inspiring lessons, helpful feedback, and strong pastoral support. You can help at home by:

  • Encouraging good attendance and punctuality
  • Supporting homework and revision routines
  • Talking with your child about their goals and progress

Together, we can help them feel confident and capable every step of the way.

There’s so much more to school life than lessons. At Stanchester Academy, students can get involved in:

  • Sports teams and fitness activities
  • Creative arts, music, and performance
  • Clubs, workshops, and after-school sessions
  • Leadership opportunities and community events

We love seeing students discover new interests and celebrate their achievements.
