As a senior leadership team, we would like to offer parents the opportunity to attend our ‘SLT Drop-In’ on Thursday 17th October from 4-6pm. This is an opportunity for any parent or carer to come into the academy to speak to any member of the senior team concerning any issues which parents and carers may wish to discuss.

Making an Appointment at the ‘SLT Drop-In’

The school operates an easy to use online booking system called SchoolCloud. This allows you to arrange your own face to face appointment inside the academy with a member of the senior team, including myself.

Appointments can be made as soon as is convenient. Once you have looked at the guidance in the attached letter below, please visit https://netkirkbalk.schoolcloud.co.uk/ to book your appointments.

If for any reason, you are unable to electronically book in for an appointment, please contact a member of our reception team on the phone number at the top of this letter who will be happy to assist you in booking a virtual appointment or arrange for you to receive a telephone call from a member of the senior team.

Anti-Bullying Policy

Kirk Balk Academy is committed to providing a caring, friendly and safe environment for all students so they can learn in a relaxed and secure atmosphere. Our staff will not accept any form of bullying within our academy although we recognise that bullying can occur. We want to reassure all parents, carers and students that if incidents of bullying are reported, it will be dealt with promptly and effectively. The senior leadership team would like to direct parents to view our anti-bullying policy which outlines our rigorous approach to tackling any incidents of bullying;

If you require any further information or clarification please feel free to arrange a meeting at the SLT Drop-In (see above) or contact reception to arrange for a call back from a member of the senior leadership team.

Yours faithfully,

Mrs H Craddock
Principal
